Investigated the interaction between postural regulation and spatial processing by having 24 college students perform LR Brooks's (see record 1968-04936-001) spatial and nonspatial memory tasks either while sitting or while maintaining a difficult standing balance position. The balance task disrupted spatial but not nonspatial memory performance. Balance steadiness during spatial and nonspatial memory conditions did not differ. Results suggest that cognitive spatial processing may rely on neural mechanisms that are also required for the regulation of posture. Findings support the idea that spatial processing may rely on phylogenetically older systems.(26 ref)(PsycINFO Database Record (c) 2016 APA, all rights reserved)
