Figure 1: Our concept of a tangible volume consists of a fully portable and self-contained device, entirely covered with screens. A virtual scene can be seen "through" the volume of the device (left image). This volume can be directly positioned within the virtual scene (middle image), and used to grasp and manipulate virtual objects (right image). A cubic-shaped device is shown here for illustration, but other volume shapes can be used. ABSTRACTWe present a new approach to achieve tangible object manipulation with a single, fully portable and self-contained device. Our solution is based on the concept of a "tangible volume". We turn a tangible object into a handheld fish-tank display. The tangible volume represents a volume of space that can be freely manipulated within a virtual scene. This volume can be positioned onto virtual objects to directly grasp them, and to manipulate them in 3D space. We investigate this concept through two user studies. The first study evaluates the intuitiveness of using a tangible volume for grasping and manipulating virtual objects. The second study evaluates the effects of the limited field of view on spatial awareness. Finally, we present a generalization of this concept to other forms of interaction through the surface of the volume.

“…The cognitive maps study perceptions about the world and the way they act to reach human desires with-in their world (Bueno & Salmeron, 2009). A cognitive map is a mental representation of a person's environment, relied upon during way finding (Sharlin et al, 2009). It may be also defined as a set of cause-effect relationships where the impact produced by the change of one or several elements over the whole system is studied (Koulouriotis et al, 2003).…”

The aim of this paper is to explore the determinants of Portfolio Choice under the investors, professionals and academics' perception. We introduce an approach based on cognitive mapping technique with a series of semi-directive interviews. Among a sample of 30 Tunisian individuals, we propose tow different frameworks: a mean-variance framework and a behavioral framework. Each framework is oriented to capture the effect of some concepts as proposed by the mean-variance portfolio theory and the behavioral portfolio theory on the portfolio choice decision. The originality of this research paper is guaranteed since it traits the behavioral portfolio choice in emergent markets. In the best of our knowledge this is the first study in the Tunisian context that explores such area of research .Ours results show that the Tunisian investors behave as it prescribed by the behavioral portfolio theory. They use some concepts proposed by the rational mean-variance theory of portfolio choice but they are affected by their emotions and some others cognitive bias when constructing and managing they portfolio of assets.

“…VR is a very useful concept to researchers who are studying the spatial abilities, wayfinding and cognitive mapping. [68][69][70] The concepts of presence, involvement, immersion and interaction are crucial to understand the physical and psychological experience of users in VR. 71 Among all of those four concepts, presence is the most essential one because presence is "a subjective concept associated with psychological aspects of the user relationship to the sense of being in the VE.".…”

It is well documented that elderly people often have difficulties in finding their way in unfamiliar environments. In this study, we aimed to explore the usage of colour as visuospatial navigation tool for elderly people by testing in a virtually simulated polyclinic environment. We compared neutral, warm and cool coloured experiment settings to find out the effect of different colours on elderly people's visuospatial navigation performances. We conducted our experiment with 90 participants in two phases, each with a specific task (Route Replication and Picture Classification). The findings showed that neutral coloured setting affected participants' visuospatial navigation performances negatively compared to warm and cool coloured settings. However, there was no significant performance difference between warm and cool coloured environments. In addition to that, when they were asked to reach to the destination point, male participants spent shorter time, did fewer wrong turns, experienced fewer hesitations and traveled shorter distances compared to female participants. Currently, due to the increase in the elderly population, designing well‐functioning interior spaces for the elderly has become a more pressing matter. We believe that the findings of this study will provide important clues for both interior designers and environmental psychologists.
