Spatial perspective taking (SPT) is an embodied process relying on egocentric mental rotations and is influenced by sensorimotor information such as body posture or vestibular signals. Here, we investigated whether conscious processing of the sensory information is necessary for a passive self-motion stimulus to influence SPT performance. Participants were solving an SPT task which involves egocentric mental rotations while at the same time they were physically rotated either directionally congruent or incongruent on a motion platform. The level of attention that was required to process the physical rotations was manipulated. Directionally congruent physical rotations led to decreased response times in the SPT task only when participants attended to the stimulus. There was no influence of physical rotations on response times when participants did not attend to them. Influence of perception on cognitive operations is modulated by the amount of attention that is placed on the sensory stimuli.
