Evidence for averaging of distance from landmarks in the domestic dog.
29 Jun 2009 
Several studies in landmark use have shown that animals locate spatial positions by predominantly using perpendicular distance from extended surfaces over distance from individual landmarks. In the current study, I investigated whether the domestic ...

Complex span versus updating tasks of working memory: the gap is not that deep.
29 Jun 2009 How to best measure working memory capacity is an issue of ongoing debate. Besides established complex span tasks, which combine short-term memory demands with generally unrelated secondary tasks, there exists a set of paradigms characterized by ...

29 Jun 2009 Examinations of interference between visual and spatial materials in working memory have suggested domain- and process-based fractionations of visuo-spatial working memory. The present study examined the role of central time-based resource sharing ...

Distance estimation in vista space.
29 Jun 2009 Although distance estimation has been extensively studied in the laboratory, our ability to judge large distances in the field is not well researched. We challenge the notion that large distances are uniformly underestimated. We presented different ...

Gaze behavior of young and older adults during stair walking.
29 Jun 2009 The authors quantitatively described gaze behavior of young (n = 10) and older (n = 10) adults during stair negotiation, which is information that is crucial for understanding the underlying visuomotor control of stair walking and the effects of ...

Eye-hand coordination in rhythmical pointing.
29 Jun 2009 The authors investigated the relation between hand kinematics and eye movements in 2 variants of a rhythmical Fitts's task in which eye movements were necessary or not necessary. P. M. Fitts's (1954) law held in both conditions with similar slope ...

Perceiving the impossible: how individuals with autism copy paradoxical figures.
29 Jun 2009 Mottron and colleagues found that individuals with autism were less affected by geometric impossibility than comparison participants on a copying task. The current experiment sought to determine whether a local perceptual style could account for ...

The topography of visuospatial attention as revealed by a novel visual field mapping technique.
29 Jun 2009 Previously, we and others have shown that attention can enhance visual processing in a spatially specific manner that is retinotopically mapped in the occipital cortex. However, it is difficult to appreciate the functional significance of the ...

Neurobiological changes in the hippocampus during normative aging.
29 Jun 2009 The number of individuals older than 65 years is projected to exceed 71.5 million in the year 2030, which is twice the number alive during the year 2000. While this dramatic increase in the number of individuals at risk for Alzheimer and vascular ...
