The impact of spatial scale on layout learning and individual evacuation behavior in indoor fires: Single-scale learning perspectives
The detail and representation of a spatial layout varies with scale. This affects an individual's
learning effectiveness and understanding, in turn directly influencing their behavior in a fire …
