Which of the following students' statements best describes the spatial framework model proposed by Franklin and Tversky?
 
  a. Susan: The mental maps we create do not have a built-in bias; we attach the same significance to left-right distinctions as to up-down distinctions.
  b. Nadia: The vertical dimension seems to have special significance when we try to create representations of our environment.
  c. Stanley: When we hear a story, we automatically assume the perspective of someone looking down on the scene from above, because of the up-down heuristic.
  d. Igor: People vary greatly in the way they construct mental maps when they hear a narrative; some rotate the scene to match the perspective of the main character, but most look at the scene as if they were outside the scene, looking in.
