  • Title: Visuospatial judgment and right hemisphere disease.
    Author: Hamsher K, Capruso DX, Benton A.
    Journal: Cortex; 1992 Sep; 28(3):493-5. PubMed ID: 1382920.
    Abstract:
    The performances of patients with stroke-produced unilateral hemispheric lesions on a test requiring the identification of lines were examined in the light of a recent report that contradicted previous observations. The study confirmed the results of earlier studies that patients with lesions of the right hemisphere show a remarkably high frequency of defective performances while those with lesions of the left hemisphere do not. Possible reasons for findings that deviate from this rule are discussed.
