Abstract
Abstract Subjects engaged in learning their spatial environment have increasingly detailed and complete information available to them at each stage in the process. This paper describes a three-stage spatial learning process based on three fuzzy formalizations of cognitive distance involving three types of information: (1) relative distance expressed linguistically in terms of closeness and/or remoteness, (2) absolute distance expressed linguistically in terms of short, long and their shades of meaning and (3) absolute distance expressed numerically. Finally, a precise method of matching subjects' linguistic and numerical judgments on absolute distances is set out.
