Dispositionen raumbezogenen Lernens und Verhaltens im Lichte neuronal-evolutionärer Determinanten (II)

Abstract

To explain proneness to space-related learning and behaviour, sociocultural factors like, for instance, age, gender, marks are pulled up. That space-related proneness is, however, in first line caused evolutionary-neurologically, does hardly play a role in geographic-didactic research so far. With this background, this article tries to explain some cognitive and affective effects of space-related learning and behaviour by falling back on neurological and evolutionary influencing factors as well as marking their role as obstacle or as potential.
