I had missed some later posts. Googling for "cognitive strategies wayfinding" seems profitable. First hit was http://www.spacesyntax.tudelft.nl/media/Papers/212sp.pdf which sounds as the kind of study you are looking for?
Best wishes!

Dear Terence Love
I do NOT mean signage, cartography or other wayshowing related studies
though they are closely related of course. I am looking for recent
studies
on how humans orient themselves in the built environment.
Solvej :-)
