The role of visual attention in neglect: A dissociation between perceptual and directional motor neglect

Pages 155-159 | Published online: 24 Oct 2007
 

Abstract

Patients with unilateral spatial neglect (neglect, for short) fail to report, respond, or orient to stimuli presented on the side of space contralateral to the lesion. This dysfunction is evident when the task requires an overt response. In contrast, patients can process the neglected stimuli and perform post-perceptual processing of the neglected stimuli, when the task requires a covert response (Berti & Rizzolatti, 1992; Lìdavas, Paladini, & Cubelli, 1993).
