Cognitive mechanisms underlying instructed choice exploration of small city maps
We investigated the cognitive mechanisms underlying the exploration and decision-making in realistic and novel environments. Twelve human subjects were shown small circular U.S. city maps with two locations highlighted on the circumference, as possible choices for a post office ("targets"). At the beginning of a trial, subjects fixated a spot at the center of the map and ultimately chose one of...
متن کاملExploration and Navigation Using Hierarchical Cognitive Maps
We describe a spatial navigation model that uses a hierarchical representation of space. The model is able to explore exhaustively large environments and to plan paths between distant places, even though it uses a working memory with a limited capacity. By using a hierarchical structure, an agent with a limited working memory capacity has (a) a comparable performance to that of an agent with no...
متن کاملCognitive Maps Exploration trough Kernel Density Estimation
Curently approximately 860,000 people are affected by Alzheimer's disease in France. This is why the study of Alzheimer’s disease has been identified as a major societal challenge. In the PAQUID cohort study, subjects performed a lexical evocation task by saying the maximum number of city names within 3 minutes. This task is directly related to the concept of cognitive map. The analysis of the ...

متن کاملCognitive Mechanisms Underlying Virtual Reality Exposure
Many studies have assessed virtual reality exposures efficacy, but very few examined its treatment processes. The addition of objective measures of arousal and information processing mechanisms would be a valuable contribution in order to provide a more complete and detailed picture. The goal of this study was to better document the cognitive mechanisms associated with therapeutic change after ...
