Although complex arrangements of information within 3D space can potentially allow for large amounts of information to be presented, accessing this information can become more difficult due to increased navigational challenges. This work is also concerned with further understanding the effects of a virtual environment&#8217;s level of spatial fidelity, involving the distinction between physical and virtual 3D space.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"teachpress_pub_list\"><form name=\"tppublistform\" method=\"get\"><a name=\"tppubs\" id=\"tppubs\"><\/a><\/form><div class=\"teachpress_publication_list\"><h3 class=\"tp_h3\" id=\"tp_h3_article\">Journal Articles<\/h3><div class=\"tp_publication tp_publication_article\"><div class=\"tp_pub_info\"><p class=\"tp_pub_author\">Eric D Ragan;
