Memory for mental models of spatial descriptions: An episodic-construction-trace hypothesis
SJ Payne - Memory & Cognition, 1993 - Springer
Three experiments, based on Mani and Johnson-Laird's (1982) study, tested memory for
spatial descriptions. In Phase 1 of each experiment, subjects judged whether diagrams …

The space in spatial language
LA Carlson, SR Van Deman - Journal of Memory and Language, 2004 - Elsevier
Projective spatial terms such as “below” specify the location of one object by indicating its
spatial relation with respect to a reference object. These relations are defined via a …

Spatial coordinates and reading: Comments on Monk (1985)
Subjects are able to process some texts when they are presented, word-by-word, in a single
physical location. As differential spatial information is not available in this task, Monk …

On the metric properties of visual images generated from verbal descriptions: Evidence for the robustness of the mental scanning effect
M Denis, M Cocude - European Journal of Cognitive Psychology, 1997 - Taylor & Francis
