      abstract     = {Most research groups studying human navigational behavior
                      with virtual environment (VE) technology develop their own
                      tasks and protocols. This makes it difficult to compare
                      results between groups and to create normative data sets for
                      any specific navigational task. Such norms, however, are
                      prerequisites for the use of navigation assessments as
                      diagnostic tools-for example, to support the early and
                      differential diagnosis of atypical aging. Here we start
                      addressing these problems by presenting and evaluating a new
                      navigation test suite that we make freely available to other
                      researchers (https://osf.io/mx52y/). Specifically, we
                      designed three navigational tasks, which are adaptations of
                      earlier published tasks used to study the effects of typical
                      and atypical aging on navigation: a route-repetition task
                      that can be solved using egocentric navigation strategies,
                      and route-retracing and directional-approach tasks that both
                      require allocentric spatial processing. Despite introducing
                      a number of changes to the original tasks to make them look
                      more realistic and ecologically valid, and therefore easy to
                      explain to people unfamiliar with a VE or who have cognitive
                      impairments, we replicated the findings from the original
                      studies. Specifically, we found general age-related declines
                      in navigation performance and additional specific
                      difficulties in tasks that required allocentric processes.
                      These findings demonstrate that our new tasks have task
                      demands similar to those of the original tasks, and are thus
                      suited to be used more widely.},
