Data are reported on the ability of a patient with unilateral left neglect to detect the presence of a gap in broken lines. Although there were some deficits in her left field in baseline conditions, more striking was the asymmetry in the effects of attentional cueing. Ipsilesional cues facilitated detection at far right locations most strongly. Contralesional cues facilitated detection at near left locations, but particularly when cues appeared on the far left. The results are interpreted in terms of biases in the lateral shifting of attention, with attention tending to overshoot to the right and undershoot to the left. The effects arise even when attentional engagement rather than disengagement is stressed.
报告了一位左侧单侧忽略症患者检测断线中缺口存在的能力。尽管在基线条件下她的左视野存在一些缺陷,但更引人注目的是注意力提示的效果存在不对称性。同侧线索最强烈地促进了远右侧位置的检测。对侧线索促进了近左侧位置的检测,但特别是当线索出现在最左侧时。结果根据注意力横向转移的偏差进行了解释,注意力倾向于向右过度转移,向左不足转移。即使强调注意力的参与而不是脱离,这些效果也会出现。
