RESUMEN
The goal of this study was an administration of the navigation task in a three-dimensional virtual environment to localize the electroencephalogram (EEG) features responsible for egocentric and allocentric reference frame processing in a horizontal and also in a vertical plane. We recorded the EEG signal of a traverse through a virtual tunnel to search for the best signal features that discriminate between specific strategies in particular plane. We identified intrahemispheric coherences in occipital-parietal and temporal-parietal areas as the most discriminative features. They have 10% lower error rate compared to single electrode features adopted in previous studies. The behavioral analysis revealed that 11% of participants switched from egocentric to allocentric strategy in a vertical plane, while 24% of participants consistently adopted egocentric strategy in both planes.
