Dissociated visual perceptual and spatial deficits in focal lesions of the right hemisphere

Year: 1969

Type: article

Abstract: Recent clinical and experimental studies of patients with unilateral lesions have been more concerned with problems of hemispheric asymmetry than with the somewhat limited notion of cerebral dominance. There are now firm data to support the observation of earlier clinicians (Hughlings Jackson, 1887; Potzl, 1928; Lange, 1936; Dide, 1938) that the right hemisphere plays a special part in visual perception and spatial orientation (McFie, Piercy,
