“…Despite this, evidence of selective personal neglect was not infrequent (Bisiach et al, 1986a ; Buxbaum et al, 2004 ). We identified evidence of selective personal neglect in 11 single cases (Table 1 ; Garcin et al, 1938 ; Zoccolotti & Judica, 1991 ; Guariglia & Antonucci, 1992 ; Beschin et al, 1997 ; Peru & Pinna, 1997 ; Marangolo et al, 2003 ; Ortigue et al, 2006 ; and four patients in Di Vita et al, 2016 ) and 10 group studies (see Table 2 ; Bisiach et al, 1986a ; Beschin & Robertson, 1997 ; McIntosh et al, 2000 ; Cocchini et al, 2001 ; Buxbaum et al, 2004 ; Bowen et al, 2005 ; Committeri et al, 2007 ; Guariglia et al, 2014 ; Rousseaux et al, 2015 ; Spaccavento et al, 2017 ). We fully agree with Guariglia and Antonucci ( 1992 ) who suggested that the number of patients showing a pure form of personal neglect may be underestimated due to methodological issues, as there is a lack of measures for evaluating impaired processes related to the contralesional body space and, as discussed in the Assessment of personal neglect section, above, the evaluation of personal neglect is still associated with some important limitations.…”
