“…This low level of performance probably resulted from three factors: the size and complexity of the environment, the limited exposure each subject had to the environment, and the passive nature of that experience. Our route was considerably longer and more circuitous than those used by Cohen (1980) or Ciccone et al (1978) in their studies of navigational learning. Lynch (1960) and other environmental designers have noted that the "legibility" (i.e., distinctiveness, predictability) of an environment strongly affects the ease of learning and navigating within that environment.…”

“…The work of Ciccone, Landee, and Weltman (1978) illustrates a somewhat different approach to navigational simulation. These researchers created a computer-generated "movie map" of a fictitious Mideast town.…”

“…This reans that a landmark due right of the current location would be judged to be straight ahead. We arbitrarily selected a criterion of 90 degrees error to define "complete disorientation" (Ciccone et al, 1978). Table 6 also indicates the percentage of subjects in each group who could be classified as disoriented according to this criterion.…”

This paper compares actual and simulated navigation as alternative sources of environmental information. Subjects experienced an 8.3-km tour of an unfamiliar environment through one of two media: a live bus tour along the route or a film shot from inside an automobile driving along the route. Subjects also received one of two types of supplementary information (a map that was studied prior to navigation or an oral narrative giving angle and distance information during navigation), or no supplement. After exposure to the environment, all subjects completed tests of landmark knowledge, procedural (route sequence) knowledge, and survey (configural relation) knowledge. Film (simulated navigation) groups performed as well as or better than tour groups on measures of landmark and survey knowledge. On tests of procedural knowledge, film groups were inferior to tour groups in their ability to point in the direction of unseen landmarks. Supplementary information affected only the film groups. Map study enhanced performance on survey knowledge tests but depressed performance on procedural knowledge tests. We conclude that simulated navigation can be used as a substitute for actual navigation under some circumstances, and that a map supplement can enhance the abstraction of survey knowledge from simulated navigation.

The article explores the concept, features, legal regime of virtual museums. The historical stages of development and formation of virtual museums are analyzed. For the concept of the logic of constructing the definition of "virtual museum", identifying its constructive features, some of the definitions existing in the doctrine are systematized in chronological order, and an analysis of the frequency of use of semantic units by the authors is carried out. The possibility of applying the legal regime of the database, multimedia works in relation to virtual museums is considered. The author singled out and studied the following features of a virtual museum: complexity, the presence of a computer program (original program code) in the structure, virtuality, interactivity, digital form of expression. The paper analyzes and systematizes the theoretical positions on the research topic, studied doctrinal approaches. Based on the results of the study, the author's definition of the concept of "virtual museum" is proposed.
