  2. Spatial disorientation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spatial_disorientation

    Spatial orientation (the inverse being spatial disorientation, aka spatial-D) is the ability to maintain body orientation and posture in relation to the surrounding environment (physical space) at rest and during motion. Humans have evolved to maintain spatial orientation on the ground.

  3. Spatial anxiety - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spatial_anxiety

    Spatial anxiety (sometimes also referred to as spatial orientation discomfort [1]) is a sense of anxiety an individual experiences while processing environmental information contained in one's geographical space (in the sense of Montello's classification of space), [2] with the purpose of navigation and orientation through that space (usually unfamiliar, or very little known). [3]

  4. Sense of direction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sense_of_direction

    Sense of direction is the ability to know one's location and perform wayfinding. [1] [2] It is related to cognitive maps, spatial awareness, and spatial cognition. [3]Sense of direction can be impaired by brain damage, such as in the case of topographical disorientation.

  5. Agoraphobia - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Agoraphobia

    Research has uncovered a link between agoraphobia and difficulties with spatial orientation. [18] [19] Individuals without agoraphobia are able to maintain balance by combining information from their vestibular system, their visual system, and their proprioceptive sense. A disproportionate number of agoraphobics have weak vestibular function ...

  6. Orientation (mental) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Orientation_(mental)

    Disorientation has a variety of causes, physiological and mental in nature. Physiological disorientation is frequently caused by an underlying or acute condition. Disease or injury that impairs the delivery of essential nutrients such as glucose, oxygen, fluids, or electrolytes can impair homeostasis, and therefore neurological function causing ...

  7. Topographical disorientation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Topographical_disorientation

    Topographical disorientation is the inability to orient oneself in one's surroundings, sometimes as a result of focal brain damage. [1] This disability may result from the inability to make use of selective spatial information (e.g., environmental landmarks) or to orient by means of specific cognitive strategies such as the ability to form a mental representation of the environment, also known ...
