Introduction:

One common type of learning involves constructing a plan for finding your way from one location to another.

Some researchers believe that this plan is nothing more than a series of conditioned associations that have been chained together as a sequence of turns. For example, you may visualize your route from home to school as a string of left and right turns in a specific sequence.

Other researchers claim that we find our way because we have formed a complex directional plan which they call a cognitive map of our route.

They claim this cognitive map is more than a set of simple associations because travelers whose familiar route is blocked can often reach their goal by taking other streets, using a quite different sequence of turns.
