A Cognitive Psychological Look at Map Interpretation
Dave Munger over at Cognitive Daily (a cognitive psychology blog) offers Reading graphs: How we do it, and what it tells us about making better ones. It’s actually about a study of how people “read” maps and explores what people look at in attempting to answer different questions. No surprise, they look at different things based on the question! Still, there are some interesting insights and suggestion about making better graphics from a cognitive standpoint, not necessarily a cartographic one.
