Frames of Reference for Mapping Tactil Stimuli in Brain-Damaged Patients

摘要: Twelve normal controls, twelve left-brain-damaged patients, and thirty-six right-brain-damaged patients with or without tactile extinction neglect were asked to report light touches delivered the left right hand simultaneously both hands. The hands could be in anatomic position one cross over other. Moreover, two hemispace across corporeal midline. Controls nontactile-extinction groups performed better when anatomical than crossed position. By contrast, detected contralesional stimuli higher accuracy This result suggests that, these impairments detecting can due not only sensory but also spatial factors contingent upon of There was no interaction between effect crossing where took place. that coding a as does necessarily occur relation bodily midline, it may arise from computation other hand.
