From: Aging and spatial cues influence the updating of navigational memories

Age and spatial cues influence spatial memory and spatial updating. Distance errors to the latest locations of relocated and non-relocated (control) objects, in the egocentric (left) allocentric (middle) and combined (right) conditions, are shown. Shorter distance errors indicate higher retrieval accuracies. The control objects represent spatial memory while the difference between distance errors of relocated and control objects represent the spatial updating deficit. The ANCOVA revealed an age-related deficit in spatial updating in the egocentric condition. Data are presented as mean ± SEM. *p < 0.05 in post-hoc tests.
