MENTAL MAPS AND SCIENCE

              

          In recent years, we will be on the concept of "Mental Maps" that we have started to see as a mental mechanism and process that is common to many subjects. The reason why this is so popular is that many myths, philosophical perceptions and approaches are beginning to give way to concrete evidence.It can be explained as the perfect combination of the concepts of "mind" and "map" as to what the mental map is. There is a lot of research about how much capacity our brain works. (Williams Woolley et al., 2007). But it seems to be quite early for certain limitations in his brain.

       

           Science is on the assumption of zero or one. Either love or leave ... In short. Nobody claims to know it wrong. It would be unreasonable anyway. It's two of the wrong information. If for some reason to put forward the other is to test the knowledge tersten is to be right. If we go back to the issue of distributing konuyu; When you wake up in the morning, you hold on to what you see, and until the time you close your eyes to sleep, all the shapes and geometric constructions are fully encoded in your brain.If you are sleeping, you are still doing physiology of the brain this time will continue. This is the board that regulates what you code. Mental maps are geographically close to the concept of scaling. The mental picture of the mental picture is revealed by the visual-spatial perception tests. (Taş, i .2006)
