People in countries that value masculine traits are more likely to overestimate their navigation abilities, finds a new study co-led by Prof @hugospiers (UCL Psych & Lang Sci). Read in Mail Online ⬇️ bit.ly/47lwgEF

New episode!! 📣📣 A conversation with Dr. Andrew Barron about the big picture of cognitive evolution. Minds and brains haven't evolved gradually to be more sophisticated. Rather, they've gone through 5 key transitions. disi.org/the-five-porta…

Video gaming, but not reliance on GPS, is associated with spatial navigation performance biorxiv.org/cgi/content/sh… #biorxiv_neursci

📣Thrilled to announce that my first first-author paper from my PhD is now available as a preprint! 📣 Link to paper: biorxiv.org/content/10.110… Thank you to all my friends and collaborators who have provided me with endless support on this journey 🧠🙌 Sea Hero Quest @hugospiers

Comparing Spatial Navigation and Human Environment Interaction in Virtual Reality vs. Identical Real Environments across the Adult Lifespan arxiv.org/abs/2308.15774

Thrilled to be in beautiful sunny Granada for the IBRO - International Brain Research Organization conference! I will be presenting a poster on Monday afternoon on ‘Exploring the link between travel-related activities and human spatial navigation performance’, poster session A, poster A25. Let’s network 🧠🙌

From overconfidence to task dropout in a spatial navigation test: evidence for the Dunning-Kruger effect across 46 countries biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

How many male authors does it take to convince you that gender differences in navigation are more nuanced than we like to believe? In our case, it was 9 authors! Check out our latest article, "Motivation moderates gender differences in navigation performance", in Scientific Reports ♂️♀️

📣 Delighted that my preprint 'Individuals learning to drive solo before age 18 have superior spatial navigation ability compared with those who learn to drive later' is now available! 🧠 🚗 👉 tinyurl.com/2s3vfw8t @hugospiers - Antoine Coutrot / moved to ciel bleu Chris Gahnstrom

Delighted to be giving my first oral presentation of my PhD research at the iSCAN symposium in Magdeburg this December! Can't wait to meet all the Spatial Navigation researchers who will be attending and form exciting collaborations 🧠 🙌

Left-handedness is not linked to better spatial skills, despite some previous evidence of a performance gap, according to a large international study co-led by Prof @hugospiers UCL Psych & Lang Sci, part of the Sea Hero Quest gaming research project ucl.ac.uk/news/2023/nov/…

So proud of Josh and Varnan for their amazing Sea Hero Quest posters at the iSCAN symposium! Excited to see the work you both go onto do and for future collaboration 🧠🙌 #neuroscience #academia @ZitaPatai @lks_kunz
