从对不同空间模型的对比与分析入手,结合空间认知行为、神经系统科学和认知心理学的有关研究成果,对空间认知模式进行了研究。研究表明,“空间”的一般表现形式分为感知空间、认知空间和符号空间3种,不同的空间表现形式具有不同的空间认知方式;根据空间认知方式的差异,空间认知模式包括空间特征感知、空间对象认知、空间格局认知3个层次,而空间特征、空间对象则是空间认知模式构成的两个基本单位。文章以大华北地区为实验区域,通过对该区域强震发生空间的格局分析,进一步阐述了空间认知模式及其应用。

Beginingwith analysis and comparison of differentmodels of space, and in combinationwiththe relative results re-\nsearched byspatial cognitive behaviors, neuroscience, and cognitive psychology, the spatial cognitivemode is studied inthis pa-\nper.The researchshowsthatthe formsofpresentationof”space”generally includethree kinds, i. e. , perceptional space, cog-\nnitive space, and symbolic space. Each of representing forms has individual spatial cognitive mode. According to the difference\nof spatial cognitive modes, the spatial cognitive model includes three levels, i. e. , spatial feature perception, spatial object\ncognition, and spatial pattern cognition, and spatial feature and spatial object are two basic units of spatial cognitivemodel. Us-\ning the GreatNorth China as an application region, by the analysis of the strong earthquakes patterns in this region, the spatial\ncognitive model and its application are illustrated further.
