Spatial neglect: usually left neglect following right parietal lesion Left (“language”) brain: Right visual field Right (“image”) brain: Entire visual field
Figure 4.31 (p. 130)Barbell stimuli that Tipper and Behrmann (1996) presented to patients with unilateral neglect. (a) Target lights flashed in the left or right circle resulted in reaction times shown in (b). The reaction times were slower for the left side, which the patient usually neglected. (c) The pattern is rotated until the circles are reversed, as shown in (d), and the reaction times are also reversed, as shown in (e). This shows that the patient’s attentional problem traveled with the object.
