Explanation:

Hamid et al. (2010) had participants navigate a maze while recording their eye movements. The maze contained landmarks on the walls at corners and at other positions that would not aid maze navigation. After participants learned the maze, the researchers removed half of the landmarks. The results of this study revealed that performance decreased when landmarks were removed that has been viewed longer

The reason performance decreased when landmarks were removed that has been veiwed longer is because though the landmarks does not aid im maze navigation the participants must have solicited the help of the landmarks for other things like remembering they had passed this particular location before or at a junction in the maze since the study started so removing it will throw them into confusion especially if the maze looks the same all round
