现有的框架解释空间知识获取在一个新的环境中提出了阶段性或持续发展。为了研究个体的空间微观发生，进行了纵向研究。24名大学生被单独驾驶沿着两条路线在一个以前不熟悉的社区超过10个星期的会议。从第4次会议开始，他们也被驱使沿着一条短的连接路线。每次会议后，参与者估计的空间属性的路线。一些参与者的知识在会议期间持续不断地提高，但大多数参与者要么从第一次会议中表现出准确的度量知识，要么从未表现出准确的度量知识。结果进行了讨论，在这些大的个体差异，特别是相对于集成的配置知识的准确性和发展。(c)2005年爱思唯尔公司All rights reserved.
Existing frameworks for explaining spatial knowledge acquisition in a new environment propose either stage-like or continuous development. To examine the spatial microgenesis of individuals, a longitudinal study was conducted. Twenty-four college students were individually driven along two routes in a previously unfamiliar neighborhood over 10 weekly sessions. Starting Session 4, they were also driven along a short connecting route. After each session, participants estimated spatial properties of the routes. Some participants' knowledge improved fairly continuously over the sessions, but most participants either manifested accurate metric knowledge from the first session or never manifested accurate metric knowledge. Results are discussed in light of these large individual differences, particularly with respect to the accuracy and development of integrated configurational knowledge. (c) 2005 Elsevier Inc.
