Outcome measures
Primary outcome
The statistical design will focus on the comparison of number of sensory stimuli detected in the neglected hemispace when presented in a unisensory fashion and when presented in multisensory fashion.
Secondary outcome
-
Study objective
Synchronous visuo-tactile signals will facilitate the patients’ intrinsic ability to voluntarily control attention towards the sensory stimuli in the neglected hemispace allowing them to be consciously processed.
Study design
There is one measurement session.
Intervention
we will compare the performance of patients in detecting sensory stimuli presented in the neglected hemispace under two different conditions that differ from each other by the properties of the sensory stimuli; 1) unisensory with only visual or only tactile stimulation, 2) multisensory with synchronous visuo-tactile stimulation.
