abstract="Visual attentional processes were compared in two deafferented patients and 11 normal subjects. Two consecutive stimuli were presented in rapid succession in one of two locations. A peripheral cue first oriented attention to one location where a response was requested. After 100 msec, a second response was required at either the same or opposite location (valid vs invalid cue). Four probabilities of valid cue occurrence were presented: 100, 80, 50 and 20%. Results showed (1) faster reaction times for the second response on cued than on uncued signals; (2) greater attentional effects with increased cue probability; (3) smaller attentional effects in patients. These findings suggest that the patients adopted a cost-minimizing strategy.<p /><p>Language: en</p>",
