Mental Map

http://learningfundamentals.com.au/resources/

The map above is known as a mental maps. Mental maps are highly abstract, and are used as representations of the real world and our perception of that world. It can be an illustration of a single concept, multiple concepts, or of different locations and their spatial properties. Mental maps also show relationships between different objects or ideas, for instance, the maps shown above shows someone's idea of health and all the things that affect one's health, such as sleep, diet, and stress. This map is a mental map and takes the form of "mind mapping", a method that uses branches to show the different ideas that go with or behind a single concept. Both map types are highly abstract and pertain to human experience.
