Taxonomy of Human Wayfinding Tasks: A Knowledge-Based Approach (2009, background): “If visual access to the target is blocked during travel, one has to update the target location according to ego-motion information to guide the path search processes (see also Conroy Dalton, 2003 ).”
Space Syntax (2003, background): “…which range from basic ones such as their area and degree of convexity to more exotic ones such as drift (which measures how eccentric the informational center of the isovist is in comparison to its actual center of gravity) (Benedict, 1979; Dalton, 2001; Turner, Doxa, O’Sullivan, & Penn, 2002).”
Up the down staircase : Wayfinding strategies in multi-level buildings (2006, background): “Both ARTICLE IN PRESS C. Hölscher et al. / Journal of Environmental Psychology 26 (2006) 284–299286 Hochmair and Frank (2002) and Conroy Dalton (2003), Conroy (2001) have described least-angle strategies: People try to minimize their global deviation from the direction of the goal position, and at ”
Space Syntax And Spatial Cognition (2003, background): “This expresses itself in both the findings about conservation of linearity, first noted by Peponis et al. (1990) earlier, and subsequently by Conroy Dalton (2001), who posed the “British Library problem.””
Wayfinding: A simple concept, a complex process (2012, background): “Conroy Dalton (2003), Hochmair and Karlsson (2005) Initial segment: people focus disproportionately on the initial portions of a route and prefer routes with longer straight initial segments regardless of the length of the later portions of the route.”
Network and Psychological Effects in Urban Movement (2005, background): “As a consequence, much current cognitive work on spatial complexity explores how far route choices reflect the frequency (Duckham and Kulik 2003[17]) or degree (Conroy-Dalton 2001[18]; 2003[19]; Hochmair and Frank 2002[20]) of directional change, rather than metric distance.”
From Axial to Road-Centre Lines: A New Representation for Space Syntax and a New Model of Route Choice for Transport Network Analysis (2007, background): “More recently, Conroy Dalton (2003) has conducted experiments to show how that people tend to minimise angle towards their destination.”
