A distinct feature of educational games using augmented reality (AR) is that the game is played through physically interacting with the environment, whereas physical interaction is typically rather limited in other digital games. Understanding and performing the interactive game mechanics can be cognitively demanding. Adding pre-training could…

Zhang, Bo; Robb, Nigel – SAGE Open, 2021
We compared two versions of an n-back training program, differing from the graphical perspective, on the effects of working memory (WM) training and transfer. Sixty participants were trained on a traditional n-back task (2D perspective) or an augmented reality (AR) version of the same program. The AR version was rated more engaging and graphically…

Liu, Xiaoxing; Thomas, Geb W.; Cook, Susan W. – Applied Cognitive Psychology, 2018
Pointing to locations can either help or hinder people's ability to recall spatial information. Prior research has focused on two-dimensional spatial memory and pointing in real world tasks. The effect of pointing on three-dimensional spatial memory in virtual environments remains unexplored. We examine this effect by comparing participants'…

Studies showed that two-dimensional (2D) and three-dimensional (3D) educational content contributes to learning. Although there were many studies with 3D stereoscopic learning environments, only a few studies reported on the differences between real, 2D, and 3D scenes, as far as cognitive load and attentional demands were concerned. We used…

Weisberg, Steven M.; Newcombe, Nora S. – Journal of Experimental Psychology: Learning, Memory, and Cognition, 2016
Research on the existence of cognitive maps and on the cognitive processes that support effective navigation has often focused on functioning across individuals. However, there are pronounced individual differences in navigation proficiency, which need to be explained and which can illuminate our understanding of cognitive maps and effective…
