Research Abstract |
This research was aimed at developing a computational theory of spatial thinking as embodied cognition, based on psychological experiments involving spatial/diagrammatic problem solving tasks. We proposed that perceptual mechanisms of visual indexing and object-based visual perception contribute to higher cognitive problem solving through analyses of subject eye gaze patterns observed in transitive inference task and table reading task experiments.
