Wayfinding is an issue in complex facilities-including hospitals, airports, and office buildings-and wayfinding difficulties are associated with negative psychological and physiological consequences. In addition, since finding one's way in a building is a prerequisite for successfully using that building, wayfinding has attracted the attention of scholars and decision makers. The goal of this article is to review and synthesize the published literature on wayfinding in interior environments. A systematic search was conducted of four databases: PsychINFO, JSTOR, ProQuest, and EBSCO. A hand search was also conducted. From the initial harvest of 804 records, a total of 84 records met the inclusion criteria for full review. After several rounds of review, four broad domains were identified: (1) wayfinding cognition, (2) wayfinding behavior, (3) individual and group differences, and (4) environmental factors. These domains are used as a framework to organize the findings, and the review shows that the sub-domains most thoroughly addressed in the literature are spatial memories, floor plan configuration, landmarks, signs, and maps. This review can deepen the field's understanding of factors that contribute to interior wayfinding and can serve as a resource for decision makers and designers.
在包括医院、机场和办公楼在内的复杂设施中，寻路是一个问题，寻路困难会带来负面的心理和生理影响。此外，由于在建筑物中找到路是成功使用该建筑物的前提条件，寻路已引起学者和决策者的关注。本文的目的是回顾和综合已发表的关于室内环境中寻路的文献。我们对四个数据库进行了系统检索：心理学文摘数据库（PsychINFO）、JSTOR、ProQuest和EBSCO。还进行了手工检索。从最初收集的804条记录中，共有84条记录符合全面审查的纳入标准。经过几轮审查，确定了四个广泛的领域：（1）寻路认知，（2）寻路行为，（3）个体和群体差异，以及（4）环境因素。这些领域被用作组织研究结果的框架，审查表明，文献中讨论最充分的子领域是空间记忆、平面图布局、地标、标识和地图。这篇综述可以加深该领域对影响室内寻路因素的理解，并可为决策者和设计师提供参考。
