Abstract

The article focuses on a scoping review conducted by researchers at the Swiss Federal Institute of Technology Zurich (ETH) regarding cognitive maps and their externalization through sketch mapping in cognitive psychology. The review analyzed 24 studies that utilized various methods, including traditional pen-and-paper sketching and digital formats, to explore how cognitive maps are formed from different experiences. The researchers emphasized the need for improved precision in reporting cognitive processes and encouraged the use of diverse media for sketch mapping to enhance research outcomes. Financial support for the study was provided by the Schweizerischer Nationalfonds zur Förderung der Wissenschaftlichen Forschung. [Extracted from the article]
