Abstract: Abstract In this paper the basic preliminary form of a cognitive egocentric dynamic mathematical representation of the proximate surrounding space as perceived by humans is introduced. In this context the social force model as an example of a CAE tool is reconsidered on three different level of modelling reality: the physical level, cognitive quasi-physical level and the cognitive level. Bridging the gap between the flexibility of human representations and the precision and clarity of physical or computerised representations is a major advantage of this approach.
