2023, Journal of Environmental PsychologyCitation Excerpt :For example, we may stand in front of a desk where a book, water bottle, keys and other objects are available and, at the same time, the desk can be aligned or misaligned with the walls of the room. This simple instance shows some important mechanisms in selecting and memorizing spatial information, such as the capacity to use different frames of reference, combine them, and refer them to salient information in the environment (i.e., environmental axes; e.g., Mou & McNamara, 2002; Shelton & McNamara, 2001). Spatial information is represented in memory according to egocentric (body-centered) and allocentric (object-centered) frames of reference (Burgess, 2006; O'Keefe & Nadel, 1978; Paillard, 1991).
