Sep 26, 2022 · Cognitive maps organize knowledge to enable flexible behavior 3, 6, 9, 26. Enabling behavior means cognitive maps must contain information relevant to behavioral tasks. Enabling flexibility means ...
Humans and animals use mental representations of the spatial structure of the world to navigate. The classical view is that these representations take the form of Euclidean cognitive maps, but alternative theories suggest that they are cognitive graphs consisting of locations connected by paths. We review evidence suggesting that both map-like and graph-like representations exist in the mind ...

Oct 10, 2017 · Thus, activity in the human hippocampus is associated with cognitive map based navigation, and the size of the hippocampus may predict the ability to acquire a cognitive map. Recently, fMRI researchers have taken these results a step further, by showing that the hippocampus in humans supports map-like spatial codes.
