Spatial memory and imagery are high-level cognitive functions influencing everyday life. These processes are ascribed to the working memory system, devoted to the simultaneous maintenance and process of information. Despite the importance of the working memory system on cognitive development, quantitative assessment methods for cognitive...

Recent scientific results show that audio feedback associated with body movements can be fundamental during the development to learn new spatial concepts [1], [2]. Within the weDraw project [3], [4], we have investigated how this link can be useful to learn mathematical concepts. Here we present a study investigating how mathematical skills...

Sensory cues enable navigation through space, as they inform us about movement properties, such as the amount of travelled distance and the heading direction. In this study, we focused on the ability to spatially update one's position when only proprioceptive and vestibular information is available. We aimed to investigate the effect of yaw...
