I promise not to drag you down the rabbit hole I began to dig with my speculation, but I can't resist sharing the information I've discovered since reading your comment.
Yes, there have been studies.
Turns out, work with Alzsheimer's patients utilizes maps in a similar, but not exact way.
And work with children uses maps to assess and develop spatial intelligence. A whole bunch of studies, starting with Piaget.
You don't have to respond to this...I'm like a dog with a bone when I get an idea. Your blog on maps has sent me on a tangent. It's fascinating. The way we visualize space and ourselves in that space influences just about everything.
Have a great day.
