Age-related changes in visual encoding strategy preferences during a spatial memory task

V Segen, MN Avraamides, TJ Slattery… - Psychological research, 2022 - Springer
Ageing is associated with declines in spatial memory, however, the source of these deficits
remains unclear. Here we used eye-tracking to investigate age-related differences in spatial …

Clockwise rotation of perspective view improves spatial recognition of complex environments in aging

Biases in object location estimation: The role of rotations and translation

V Segen, MN Avraamides, T Slattery… - Attention, perception, & …, 2023 - Springer
Spatial memory studies often employ static images depicting a scene, an array of objects, or
environmental features from one perspective and then following a perspective-shift-prompt …

The role of memory and perspective shifts in systematic biases during object location estimation

V Segen, G Colombo, M Avraamides, T Slattery… - Attention, Perception, & …, 2022 - Springer
In the current study, we investigated whether the introduction of perspective shifts in a spatial
memory task results in systematic biases in object location estimations. To do so, we asked …
