Human Visual Field and Navigational Strategies

# metadata.dc.description.abstract[].value
In this study we use a particular virtual reality environment to investigate spatial navigation
in human adults in two viewing conditions. In the first, participants could simultaneously
see both landmarks of the virtual environment which inform about the location of the goal
(simultaneous vision). In the second, participants could see only one landmark at a time
(sequential vision). Basically, conditions differed with regard to the amplitude of the visual
fields, which might influence the strategy adopted by the participant to navigate in the
virtual space and locate the goal. When people have visual access to both landmarks, they
can use all relevant information to navigate. However, when people see only one landmark
at a time, they need to integrate the partial viewings of the environment in order to
reconstruct the visual space. Consequently, simultaneous and sequential vision tasks
involve different cognitive demands...
