Amnestic versus non-amnestic MCI: tye role of cueing in a spatial navigation memory task

The aim of the present work is to assess the effect of visual cueing in a spatial navigation memory task related to global cognitive profile in Mild Cognitive Impairment (MCI). Hippocampus is deeply involved in both spatial navigation (Maguire et al., 2000) and encode and recall processes by verbal cueing (Dubois et al., 2007). Rusconi et al. (2015) suggested differences in spatial navigation between amnestic (aMCI) and non-amnestic (naMCI) subtypes. However, the role of cueing in topoghaphical orientation tasks is still poorly investigated.
