The findings obtained in this research project are summarized as follows :(1) A questionnaire survey concerning the map use of university students reveals that interest in map is related to not only the type of map used but also the computer literacy.(2) Examination of the relationship between class interval in choropleth map and information received by the map reader demonstrates that map makers must carefully choose suitable method for cartographic representation by considering the rules of visualization and data processing.(3) The result of the analysis of the cognitive process of map reading by recording eye movements of map-readers indicates some differences in visual search between experts and novices, implying a top-down nature of the map reading process.(4) An experiment on the conditions for communicating geographic information and navigation with guide maps shows that performance of map reading and navigation is much affected by map reader's spatial abilities rather than style of the map.(5) The scores of sense of direction questionnaire (SDQ-S) are closely related to the performance of spatial tasks.(6) Effectiveness of map use in a new subject of the elementary school in Japan is discussed by considering gender differences of spatial abilities.(7) A content analysis of the guide maps of United States and Japan shows that their cartographic properties reflect differences in postal address and street system between these countries.

（1）对大学生地图使用情况的问卷调查显示，大学生对地图的兴趣不仅与使用的地图类型有关，还与计算机素养有关。(2)通过对分区图中的类间隔与读图者所接收信息之间关系的研究，说明制图者必须从可视化和数据处理的角度出发，慎重选择合适的制图表示方法。(3)通过记录地图阅读者的眼动，对地图阅读的认知过程进行分析，结果表明专家和新手在视觉搜索方面存在差异，暗示地图阅读过程是自上而下的。(4)通过对导航地图与地理信息交流条件的实验研究表明，地图阅读者的空间能力对地图阅读和导航的影响很大，而与地图的风格无关。(5)方向感问卷（SDQ-S）的得分与空间任务的完成密切相关。(6)本研究以日本国小一门新科目为研究对象，以空间能力的性别差异为考量，探讨地图使用的成效。(7)对美国和日本指南地图的内容分析表明，其制图属性反映了这些国家之间邮政地址和街道系统的差异。
