This text offers extended chapters from three of the most respected and recognized investigators in the field: Michel Denis, Margaret Intons-Peterson, and Philip Johnson-Laird. Denis considers the role of mental imagery in spatial cognition and topographical orientation; images are viewed as a form of mental representation that is similar to real-world objects. Intons-Peterson examines spatial representation in short-term, or working-memory, considering the relationship of visual-spatial processes to subjects' expectations and individual differences. Johnson-Laird approaches the issue of visual-spatial representation from a \"mental models\" perspective, considering the relationship of images to various cognitive events. The editors provide a historical and theoretical introduction; and a final chapter integrates the arguments of the chapters, offering ideas about new directions and new research designs.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Mia Karts","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51666801754400,"sku":"NEW0195100859","price":57.79,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0980\/7426\/3840\/files\/71FMrBTJNIL.jpg?v=1778948920","url":"https:\/\/miakarts.com\/products\/models-of-visuospatial-cognition-counterpoints-cognition-memory-and-language-0195100859","provider":"Miakarts Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
