Our experience of the world is influenced by numerous spatial biases. Providing a 'one-stop shop' for information on such a key aspect of our experience of the world, this volume introduces and reviews the most prominent spatial biases in various domains and activities.
Our experience of the world is influenced by numerous spatial biases, most of which influence us without our being aware of them. These biases are related to illusions and asymmetries in our perception of space, relationships between space and other qualities, dynamics of moving objects, dynamics of scene configuration, and dynamics related to perception and action. Consideration of these biases provides insight into how we perceive, remember, and navigate space, as well as how we interact with objects and people in space. This volume introduces and reviews numerous spatial biases, and provides descriptions and examples of each bias. The contributors discuss historical and current theories for many biases, and for some biases, provide new explanatory theories. Providing a 'one-stop shop' for information on such a key aspect of our experience in the world, this volume will interest anyone curious about our understanding of space.

Timothy L. Hubbard is an adjunct faculty member at Arizona State University and Adjunct Doctoral Dissertation Chair at Grand Canyon University, and was previously a Full Professor at Texas Christian University. He has published 83 papers in peer-reviewed journals, 12 chapters in various academic books, and over 100 scientific conference presentations. He is Consulting Editor for Attention, Perception, & Psychophysics and the Journal of Experimental Psychology: Human Perception and Performance, and Associate Editor for Frontiers in Psychology. He has published scholarly reviews and empirical findings on several spatial biases and is a Fellow of the Association for Psychological Science and of the Psychonomic Society.
