Figure 2. Example of trial used for the bisection, visual search and spatial memory tasks.

Note: The three tasks were performed in different blocks, each task requiring a similar binary yes/no response.

Figure 3. Accuracy (% mean ± SD) is depicted as a function of the triplet stimulus position in the visual field (left, right and centre) and the group (3P, 4P, 5P and 7P) in the bisection task (A), in the visual search task (B) and the spatial memory task (C).

Figure 4. Relation between individual performance scores for LVF, RVF and CVF for each task in function to reading level. (A) Line bisection, (B) Visual search and (C) Visuo-spatial memory task.

Notes: The green line and the diamonds correspond to the 3P group; the blue line and the squares to the 4P group; the black line and the triangles to the 5P group; and the red line and the crosses to the 7P group.
