Luhlolo lwekuva indlela

Fundza libalave, uhambe emtselweni webumnyama uyofika emafulegeni ngekulandzelana kwawo, bese ukhomba ubuyele lapho ucale khona. Kutsatsa cishe imizuzu lengu-5, kumahhala, akudzingeki kubhalisa.

Loko lokukalwako ngulomdlalo

Lomdlalo ukala tincenye letimbili tekutfola indlela: kutfola indlela yekuya etindzaweni lotibone ebalavini usebentisa indlela lemfisha, kanye nekukhumbula lapho ucale khona kuze ukhone kukhomba ubuyele khona. Kokubili kusekelwe elucwaningweni lwekutfola indlela, lokufaka ekhatsi umdlalo wefoni lowadlalwa tigidzi tebantfu [1][2].

Umdlalo welucwaningo i-Sea Hero Quest wawucela badlali kutsi babambe ebalavini timphawu tekuma engcondvweni, bese bashayela sikebhe baya kuto, futsi ngaletinye tikhatsi badubule sibane sebucwayiso basibhekise lapho bacale khona [1]. Umdlalo wetfu wetfu: umtselo losemkhatsini wetihlahla ebusuku, lonemabalave nemitsetfo yawo. Ugcina letindlela letimbili tekukala te-lucwaningo: kutsi indlela yakho beyindze kangakanani nayicatsaniswa nalenemfishane kakhulu, nekutsi ukhombe khashane kangakanani nendzawo lokufanele ukhombe kuyo.

Kulucwaningo loluncane, indlela bantfu labasha labangu-60 labenta ngayo emalevelini ekutfola indlela e-Sea Hero Quest beyihambisana nendlela labatfola ngayo indlela emigwacweni yangempela yaseLondon naseParis (kuhambisana kwetilinganiso bekungu-0.46 na-0.57) [3]. Loko kwaboniswa ngalowo mdlalo, hhayi ngalona.

Umdlalo usebenta njani

  • Emaleveli langu-5, aya ngekukhula. Nguleveli ngayinye kucala kuboniswe libalave lonkhe imizuzwana lengu-8 kuya ku-12: lithende lakho, indlela lobheke kuyo, kanye nemafulegi lanetinombolo. Cala kuhamba nawulungile.
  • Bese uya emafulegeni ngekulandzelana kwawo, usebentisa inkumbulo. Ubona kuphela indilinga yekukhanya kwesibane sakho, futsi umbono uyajika nawujika: loko lokuphambi kwakho kuhlala kuphezulu.
  • Nasewufike efulegeni lekugcina (noma nasekuphele imizuzwana lengu-45 kuya ku-75 yalelo leleveli), khomba ubuyele ethendeni lakho bese uyacinisekisa.
  • Kulawulwa ngalokhiye bemacibisholo noma W, A, S, D kukhibhodi; kufoni, tinkinobho letingaphansi kwembono (bamba kuze uhambe noma ujike). Kute ukhombe, hudula indingilizi ekutungeletile noma usebentise tikhi tekuphendvuka.
  • Kucala uhambo lolufisha lwekutilolonga kukhanya kukhanyisiwe (ungaluyeqa). Ngemuva kwaleveli ngayinye, libalave likhombisa indlela yakho nalapho ukhombe khona.

Kuko konkhe kudlala kuba nemitselo lemisha. Umtselo ngamunye unemigwaco lemifishane lembalwa lebuyela kuyo, ngako kunendlela lengetulu kweyodwa yekufika efulegeni.

Indlela yekufundza emaphuzu akho

  • Kusebenta kahle kwendlela: indlela lemfishane kakhulu ledlula kuwo onkhe emafulegi ihlukaniswa ngebudze bendlela loyihambile, bese kubalwa silinganiso kuwo onkhe emaleveli. 100% kusho kutsi ngaso sonkhe sikhatsi uhambe ngendlela lemfishane kakhulu. Nangabe sikhatsi siphelile, indlela lemfishane lebeyisasele ibalwa njengaleyo loyihambile.
  • Liphutsa lekukhomba: mangakhi emadigri umcibisholo wakho bewusuke ngawo emgceni locondzile loya ethendeni, kubalwe silinganiso kuwo onkhe emaleveli. 0° kusho kukhomba khona kanye; nangabe ukhomba nje noma ngukuphi, ngekwesilinganiso usuke ngemadigri langu-90.
  • Ngeleveli: emaleveli lamakhulu anemafulegi lamanyenti futsi alukhuni kakhulu.

Nasebaningi bantfu badlalile, umphumela wakho utawukhombisa nekutsi uqhathaniseka njani nalabanye badlali balomdlalo. Laba bantfu labavakashela leli sayithi, abasibo sibonelo lesimele bonkhe bantfu.

Lutsini lucwaningo?

Emininingwaneni yebadlali be-Sea Hero Quest labatigidzi, likhono lekutfola indlela lehla kancane kancane kusukela ebudaleni bekucala [1][2]. Emave onkhe, emadvodza bekenta kancono kancane ngesilinganiso, umehluko lomncane (Cohen's d = 0.29) lowawumkhulu kakhulu emaveni lanekungalingani lokukhulu ngebulili [1]. Bantfu labakhulele ngaphandle kwemadolobha bebakhona kutfola indlela kancono [4].

  • Budze beminyaka: kubadlali labacishe babe ngu-560,000 labavela emaveni langu-57, kusebenta kwehla kancane kancane kusukela eminyakeni le-19 [1]. Kuchubeka kwekuhlatiya kwabadlali labangu-3.9 million kwatfola kwehla lokucishe kulandzele umugca kusukela ekucaleni kweminyaka yabo-20 [2].
  • Bulili: inzuzo yemadvodza ngesilinganiso beyincane, isukela ku-d = 0.09 eNorway kuya ku-0.48 eArgentina [1].
  • Lapho ukhulele khona: kubantfu labacishe babe ngu-400,000 labavela emaveni langu-38, labo labakhulele ngaphandle kwemadolobha benta kancono, futsi bantfu benta kahle kakhulu emigwacweni lefana naleyo labakhulele kuyo [4].

Leti tilinganiso temacembu lamakhulu kakhulu. Atisho lokunyenti ngemuntfu munye, futsi umdlalo wetfu wehlukile ku-Sea Hero Quest, ngako ungacatsanisi tinombolo takho netabo.

Loko lomdlalo longakusho nalongakusho ngawe

Lona ngumdlalo losekrinini, hhayi luhlolo lwekutfola sifo. Kudlala kahle noma kabi akusho lutfo ngemphilo yakho. Kucala, kujwayela kulawula umdlalo kubalulekile; kungako kunekuhamba kwekutilolonga. Umphumela wakho uphindze utsintfwe luhlobo lwedivayisi yakho nekutsi udlala imidlalo kangakanani. Catsanisa nemzamo wakho lolandzelako.

Imibuto levame kubutwa

Ungaluhlola yini ku-inthanethi likhono lakho lekutfola indlela?

Yebo, ngemdlalo lofana nalona. Imidlalo yelucwaningo ikala likhono lekutfola indlela ngekutsi bantfu bafike ngco kangakanani etindzaweni labatibone ebalavini, nekutsi bakhona kangakanani kukhomba babuyele lapho bacale khona [1]. Umdlalo losekrinini awufaki kuhamba, timphawu letibonakalako kanye nekuphendvula umtimba wakho, ngako ukhombisa incenye kuphela yekutfola indlela emhlabeni wangempela.

Kungani labanye bantfu bangakhoni kahle kutfola indlela?

Bantfu behluke kakhulu endleleni labatfola ngayo indlela. Tifundvo letinkhulu tikhombisa kuhlobana kwaloko neminyaka kanye nendzawo bantfu labakhulele kuyo [1][2][4]. Emisebentini yelucwaningo, kukhomba tindzawo longatiboni kukalwa ngendlela lefana nalena, njengeliphutsa ngemadigri, futsi bantfu behluka kakhulu kuloko [5].

Luhlolo lwekuva indlela lwe-Helibrain lumahhala yini?

Yebo. Lomdlalo nemphumela wakho wonkhe kumahhala: akudzingeki kubhalisa, i-imeyili noma kukhokha. Helibrain itfola imali nge-app yayo, longayidzingi kulo mdlalo.

How this test works

This game looks at two parts of finding your way: reaching places you saw on a map by a short route, and keeping track of where you started. Each level shows a maze map with your tent and numbered flags. Then you walk to the flags in the dark, seeing only a small circle of light, and point back to your tent. You score route efficiency and pointing error. The navigation game Sea Hero Quest used similar measures in 2018.
