TY - JOUR PY - 1999// TI - Developing algorithms to enhance the sensitivity of cancellation tests of visuospatial neglect JO - Behavior research methods, instruments, and computers A1 - Donnelly, Nick A1 - Guest, R.

SP - 668 EP - 673 VL - 31 IS - 4 N2 - We describe a set of algorithms that enhance the sensitivity of cancellation tests used in assessing visuospatial neglect. The algorithms can be readily implemented on a computer and can provide temporal and nontemporal data on strategies used during cancellation. We also present preliminary results from a group of 68 right-hemisphere brain-damaged patients and 12 age-matched control participants, which demonstrate the clinical significance of the measures we have defined.
