Spatial memory refers to the cognitive ability to remember the locations of objects, navigate through environments, and recall spatial relationships. It is fundamental for an organism’s capability to create and retrieve mental maps of its surroundings.

Hippocampal Function

The hippocampus is a key brain structure involved in the formation and retrieval of spatial memory. It is critically engaged in tasks that require navigation and spatial awareness, making it a central focus in studies using spatial memory tests.
