Navigation ability is particularly sensitive to aging. Evidence of aging patterns is largely
restricted to comparing young adults and elderly and limited in the variety of navigation tasks …

Aging effects have often been reported for spatial navigation performance. Moreover,
navigation performance is thought to be an early marker of pathological aging. Yet, the …

Accumulating evidence suggests that distinct aspects of successful navigation—path
integration, spatial-knowledge acquisition, and navigation strategies—change with …

While existing evidence suggests that older adults have compromised spatial navigation
abilities, the effects of age on specific aspects of navigational skill are less well specified …

Most research groups studying human navigational behavior with virtual environment (VE)
technology develop their own tasks and protocols. This makes it difficult to compare results …

Spatial navigation is a complex cognitive skill that is necessary for everyday functioning in
the environment. However, navigational skills are not typically measured in most test …

Background. Human spatial navigation can be conceptualized as egocentric or exocentric,
depending on the navigator's perspective. Navigational impairment is known to occur in …

Previous research has demonstrated age-related decline in spatial navigation skills.
However, spatial navigation is a complex ability that requires the integration of many …

Navigation ability varies widely across humans. Prior studies have reported that being
younger and a male has an advantage for navigation ability. However, these studies have …

ABSTRACT A decline in navigational abilities is a consistent feature of aging. Although
many studies focused on recall of navigational information, the impact of time and type of …
