This study examines how expert London taxi drivers plan routes by precaching decisions at key junctions, using complexity metrics to prioritize mental sampling during route planning.

This study shows that London taxi drivers use hierarchical planning by organizing city regions into clusters, leading to faster route recall compared to distance-based planning.

This study shows that London taxi drivers improve their navigation skills over decades by using regional boundaries to optimize route choices.

The paper examines how starting to drive solo before age 18 affects wayfinding ability using a mobile game task and self-reported driving data.

The paper examines overconfidence and the Dunning-Kruger effect in spatial navigation across 46 countries using data from 376,836 participants.

The paper examines cultural influences on self-estimated navigation ability versus actual performance across 46 countries using a large sample.

The paper links street network entropy in childhood environments to spatial navigation ability in adulthood using a global video game-based cognitive task.

This paper examines how London taxi drivers acquire their cognitive map of London through systematic study and route-based learning, providing insights for AI spatial learning.

The paper investigates how global economic and cultural factors influence spatial navigation ability across 2.5 million people, finding five clustered groups linked to wealth and gender inequality.
