There is ongoing debate in spatial cognition about the mechanisms by which organisms are able to reorient, or reestablish a position, in the world after losing their bearing. The traditional view is that there is an encapsulated reorientation module ...

Spatial memory recall in the giant panda (Ailuropoda melanoleuca).
30 Jul 2009
The current study tested spatial memory recall in 1 male and 1 female giant panda (Ailuropoda melanoleuca). The task required subjects to make a delayed response to a previously lighted location, with varying lengths of delay between the observation ...

Previous studies demonstrate that soft-bodied (coleoid) cephalopods are adept at learning and remembering features of their environment, but little is known about their primitive relative, nautilus. Nautilus makes nightly migrations from deep to ...

Embodiment of abstract concepts: good and bad in right- and left-handers.
30 Jul 2009
Do people with different kinds of bodies think differently? According to the body-specificity hypothesis, people who interact with their physical environments in systematically different ways should form correspondingly different mental ...

The spatial rule of multisensory integration holds that cross-modal stimuli presented from the same spatial location result in enhanced multisensory integration. The present study investigated whether processing within the somatosensory cortex ...

Anterior intraparietal sulcus is sensitive to bottom-up attention driven by stimulus salience.
30 Jul 2009
Frontal eye fields (FEF) and anterior intraparietal sulcus (aIPS) are involved in the control of voluntary attention in humans, but their functional differences remain poorly understood. We examined the activity in these brain regions as a function ...

Development of visuospatial ability and kanji copying in Williams Syndrome.
30 Jul 2009
Williams syndrome is known for uneven cognitive abilities. Visuospatial difficulties such as a failure in constructing objects are considered to be characteristic and may influence the copying of Japanese semantic characters, kanji. In contrast to ...

Glutamate is the major excitatory neurotransmitter in the mammalian central nervous system. Disturbed glutamate signaling resulting in hypofunction of N-methyl-D-aspartate receptors (NMDAR) has been implicated in the pathophysiology of ...

In this issue of Neuron, Genovesio et al. report that neurons in the frontal cortex encode the relative duration of appearance of two sensory signals, together with the features of each signal. Such representations could provide a neural basis for ...

The middle range of the number line orients attention to the left side of visual space.
28 Jul 2009
Mental representation of numbers is believed to be spatial in nature, with small numbers occupying the left and large numbers the right side of a putative mental number line. Consistent with this, presentation of numbers from the low and high ends ...
