Individual differences and personality correlates of navigational performance in the virtual route learning task
作者：
Highlights：
• Psychoticism is positively correlated with the length of path taken in virtual environments (VEs).
• Increased wayfinding anxiety negatively affects the efficiency of navigation in VEs.
• Stronger immersive tendencies allow less erratic wayfinding in VEs.
• Application of the survey strategy facilitates navigation in VEs even despite a lack of any explicit global cues.
• Computer experience is an important factor affecting performance in wayfinding virtual tasks.
