The development of human cognitive function is closely related to the environment.
A recent study published in the top journal Nature found that the regularity of spatial layout in people's living environments affects their sense of direction.
The study involved nearly 400,000 participants in 38 countries. They completed a mobile game called "Sailor Heroes". The game's mission is to drive a ship and, guided by the map, find the marine life.
The results found:
People who grew up in cities have a worse sense of direction than people in rural and suburban areas;
The more gridded the urban layout, the worse the spatial capacity of the people in it.
Even when the effects of age, sex and education level were controlled through statistical analysis, these differences persisted.
Dr Antoine Coutrot, the principal investigator of the study, at the National Centre for Scientific Research in Lyon, France, said that rural roads are tortuous and spatially more complex, and people in them are more likely to need to make multiple turns at different angles, remember more paths and landmarks, and thus have a better sense of direction.
But Dr. Coutrot also points out that this result may also have something to do with the setting of the game itself. "Sailor Heroes" is set in the natural environment, while another "City Hero" game study with the theme of city streets found that people who grew up in the city have a better sense of direction in urban missions.
