“…A counter claim suggests that these information types develop in parallel (Evans, Marrero, & Butler, 1981; Hermer & Spelke, 1996, 1994; Montello, 1998; Yeap & Jefferies, 2000). Another view suggests that spatial representations preserve perceptuo-motor information derived from the navigation experience (Regier & Carlson, 2001; Taylor & Brunyé, 2013; Tversky, 2005; Tversky & Hard, 2009). This embodied notion contrasts with more abstract, amodal network codes for spatial knowledge (Kuipers, 1978; McNamara, 1991; Stevens & Coupe, 1978).…”

Four experiments examined perceptuo-motor associations involved in spatial knowledge encoding and retrieval. Participants learned spatial information by studying a map or by navigating through a real environment and then verified spatial descriptions based on either egocentric or cardinal directional terms. Participants moved the computer mouse to a YES or NO button to verify each statement. We tracked mouse cursor trajectories to examine perceptuo-motor associations in spatial knowledge. An encoding hypothesis predicts that perceptuo-motor associations depend on the involvement of perceptions and actions during encoding, regardless of how spatial knowledge would be used. The retrieval hypothesis predicts that perceptuo-motor associations change as a function of retrieval demands, regardless of how they are learned. The results supported the retrieval hypothesis. Participants showed action compatibility effects with egocentric retrieval, regardless of how spatial information was learned. With well-developed spatial knowledge, a reliable compatibility effect emerged during egocentric retrieval, but no or limited compatibility effects emerged with cardinal retrieval. With less-developed knowledge, the compatibility effects evident during cardinal retrieval suggest a process of egocentric recoding. Other factors of environment learning, such as location proximity and orientation changes, also impacted the compatibility effect, as revealed in the temporal dynamics of mouse movements. Taken together, the results demonstrate that retrieval demands differentially rely upon perceptuo-motor associations in long-term spatial knowledge. This effect is also modulated by environment experience, proximity of learned locations, and experienced orientations.

“…The most important step in text processing is the marking of spatial object descriptors and the relations between them. Therefore, annotations are complemented by cognitive-linguistic spatial role markers (Thiering [2018]; see also Taylor and Brunyé [2013]) by marking spatial relations, for which the "brat rapid annotation tool" 23 is used.…”

The richness of social and cultural theory in the humanities offers countless opportunities for using theory-informed concepts in data-based analysis workflows. The contributors to this volume thus encourage further research utilizing out-of-the-box models and approaches to space and place in the field of Digital Humanities. The collection follows the two complementary goals of providing promising conceptualisations of space and place for a broad audience from Digital Humanities, and of presenting current work in Digital Humanities using different conceptualisations of space and place or offering innovative methods for their analysis.
