As predicted, the amateurs 'head moved back in unison with their putter head, something Lee calls an "allocentric" movement, which agrees with the advice that novice golfers move their head.    From Wordnik.com.  [Scientific Blogging] Reference

Selective influence of prior allocentric knowledge on the kinesthetic learning of a path.    From Wordnik.com.  [SpaceRef Top Stories] Reference

The development of a precise and place specific preference depends on the integration of the relevant cues into an allocentric cognitive representation.    From Wordnik.com.  [PLoS ONE Alerts: New Articles] Reference

Alternatively, if participants coded a RLRR dance in allocentric coordinates they should produce a LRLL sequence after Rotation 1 and a RLRR sequence after Rotation 2.    From Wordnik.com.  [The Earth Times Online Newspaper] Reference

On the other hand the more general inability to develop fully allocentric search strategies was not predicted but this can be probably ascribed to the model's simplicity.    From Wordnik.com.  [PLoS ONE Alerts: New Articles] Reference

Furthermore, they relied primarily on a delayed progression to directed search patterns and generally failed to proceed to the most precise place-specific and allocentric strategies.    From Wordnik.com.  [PLoS ONE Alerts: New Articles] Reference

Some, for example, do not use egocentric terms such as "left, right, front, back" to talk about spatial relations, instead using allocentric notions like "north, south, east, west" at all times.    From Wordnik.com.  [The Earth Times Online Newspaper] Reference

Whereas we found control animals to proceed reliably towards using allocentric strategies, where distal cues provide geometric reference to an animal's current location, treated mice largely failed to do so.    From Wordnik.com.  [PLoS ONE Alerts: New Articles] Reference

An effective progression from thigmotaxis to precise and place specific allocentric navigation depends on a metric representation of the environment which in turn requires a successful integration of the available distant cues.    From Wordnik.com.  [PLoS ONE Alerts: New Articles] Reference

On the other hand it seems hard to explain why a problem in executive control caused as a side-effect of a systemic treatment should result in the selective inability to develop and use precise allocentric behavioral strategies.    From Wordnik.com.  [PLoS ONE Alerts: New Articles] Reference

Failure to apply precise allocentric behavioral strategies is not explicitly predicted by such a model because development of allocentric representations appears to involve the integration rather than exclusion of information experienced over time.    From Wordnik.com.  [PLoS ONE Alerts: New Articles] Reference

Thus, the inability to develop true allocentric search strategies and a profound lack in flexibility after changing the platform's position may likely turn out to be two sides of the same medal but this link needs to be clarified in further studies.    From Wordnik.com.  [PLoS ONE Alerts: New Articles] Reference

Furthermore, to find the hidden platform TMZ mice consistently relied on scanning and directed search at the expense of focal search and direct swimming, the latter representing the truly allocentric search patterns with the highest spatial precision.    From Wordnik.com.  [PLoS ONE Alerts: New Articles] Reference

Our finding that treated mice reached comparable performance levels at the end of the first acquisition phase raised the important question whether progression to the spatially most precise, allocentric strategies is mandatory for learning the reference memory version of the water maze.    From Wordnik.com.  [PLoS ONE Alerts: New Articles] Reference

Some, for example, do not use egocentric terms such as 'left, right, front, back' to talk about spatial relations, instead using allocentric notions like 'north, south, east, west' at all times for all scales: "The spoon is north of the bowl" or "There is an snake by your Northern leg".    From Wordnik.com.  [EurekAlert! - Breaking News] Reference

The essential need of an opportunity to form stable, integrated representations in order to develop allocentric search strategies is also consistent with our finding that in the control group focal search and direct swimming were used by more than 50\% of the animals only after more than two days of training.    From Wordnik.com.  [PLoS ONE Alerts: New Articles] Reference
