I want to start to study and get some information about spatial cognition, especially focusing on Individual Differences. Can anybody help me with some references like books, chapters or available articles so that I can have and get starting info?
Thanks in advance,

A very interesting question!
However, according to Christopher Alexander, 90% of our feelings are shared, and idiosyncratic aspects of our feelings account for only 10%. According to my study, it is the underlying spatial structure, or the scaling property of far more small things than large ones (or far more less connected things than well connected ones, or far more meaningless things than meaningful ones) that determine the image of the city, or the cognitive map.
Jiang B. (2013), The image of the city out of the underlying scaling of city artifacts or locations, Annals of the Association of American Geographers, 103(6), 1552-1566.
here's a review paper that discusses hippocampal size and navigation ability:

You should read my works on individual differences in navigation strategies. Especially my recently published paper about a new Navigation Strategy Questionnaire developed at the National University of Singapore.
