In this contribution we investigate the mental representation of spatial information. In a previous paper (Wender & Wagener, 1985) we reported results that suppoerted the idea of spatial information being mentally represented in an analogue format. THis paper extends the previous results. Furthermore a simulation model is developed that descries the data from two different experimental tasks, a priming technique and a sentence verification test. These experimental tasks gave results that in part look contradictory. The model discussed is an attempt to account for this contradiction.
