摘要

本文概述了Cheng(《认知》，23(2)，149-178,1986)的一篇假设空间表征中存在纯几何模块的文章所引发的研究和争议。在进行了数百次实验之后，我们对各种物种、年龄和各种条件下的空间行为有了更多的了解，但对这些现象仍然没有一个共识模型。我主张采用一种适应性组合方法，它包含以下几个原则:(1)关注生态位及其提供的空间信息;(2)以经验为期待的发展方式;(3)随着环境条件的变化而持续的可塑性;(4)语言是支持空间行为的众多认知工具之一。

What have we learned from research on the "geometric module"?

This article is an overview of the research and controversy initiated by Cheng's (Cognition, 23(2), 149-178, 1986) article hypothesizing a purely geometric module in spatial representation. Hundreds of experiments later, we know much more about spatial behavior across a very wide array of species, ages, and kinds of conditions, but there is still no consensus model of the phenomena. I argue for an adaptive combination approach that entails several principles: (1) a focus on ecological niches and the spatial information they offer; (2) an approach to development that is experience-expectant: (3) continued plasticity as environmental conditions change; (4) language as one of many cognitive tools that can support spatial behavior.
