“…An NAT-LAS score of 0.30 would indicate that the participant used 30% more ipsilateral than contralateral items. On the basis of Schwartz et al (1999), we used a NAT-LAS cutoff score of 0.05 to indicate neglect. The NAT assesses peripersonal neglect and requires about 45 min to administer and score.…”

OBJECTIVE. We determined whether various assessment tools detect neglect differently by administering a battery of assessments to people with stroke. METHOD. We conducted a case series study and administered five neglect assessments (paper-and-pencil, functional, virtual reality) to participants poststroke. RESULTS. Twelve participants (6 men, 6 women) with stroke completed the assessment battery, which required approximately 2 hr to administer (over one to two sessions). All participants demonstrated neglect on three or more assessments. Functional assessments and the virtual reality assessment detected neglect more frequently than the paper-and-pencil assessments. Participants performed differently on the paper-and-pencil assessments and functional assessments. CONCLUSION. Because neglect is complex, detection may depend largely on the assessment administered.

“…Based on different case studies with ADS patients, some errors are more frequent in specific patients than others. In addition, thanks to these studies it can be revealed that those patients who present high error rates commit more omission errors [18,19].…”

Background: Neurological patients after stroke usually present cognitive deficits which impose a dependency in their daily living. These deficits mainly affect the performance of some daily activities which can be dangerous if no supervision is provided. For that reason, stroke patients need long-term processes for their cognitive rehabilitation. Considering that classical techniques are focused on acting as a guide, teaching by repetition and they depend on the help of therapists, big efforts are being made to improve current methodologies and get benefits from ehealth and web-based architectures to implement ICT systems that achieve reliable, personalized and home-based platforms to increase efficiency and level of attractiveness for patients and carers.

Cause and Effect Theories of Attention: The Role of Conceptual Metaphors

Scientific concepts are defined by metaphors. These metaphors determine what attention is and what count as adequate explanations of the phenomenon. The authors analyze these metaphors within 3 types of attention theories: (a) "cause" theories, in which attention is presumed to modulate information processing (e.g., attention as a spotlight; attention as a limited resource); (b) "effect" theories, in which attention is considered to be a by-product of information processing (e.g., the competition metaphor); and (c) hybrid theories that combine cause and effect aspects (e.g., biasedcompetition models). The present analysis reveals the crucial role of metaphors in cognitive psychology, neuroscience, and the efforts of scientists to find a resolution to the classic problem of cause versus effect interpretations.Everyone knows what attention is. (William James, 1890/1950 No one knows what attention is, and . . . there may even not be an "it" there to be known about (although of course there might be). (Pashler, 1998, p. 1) The history of attention research is not just an ongoing debate about how to explain the phenomena of attention. It is equally a debate about what attention is. It is widely recognized in contemporary philosophy of science (Hanson, 1958;Hesse, 1966;Kuhn, 1962) that our scientific theories determine what we regard as data, how we individuate phenomena, and what the criteria for an adequate explanation should be. The phenomena are not just "given" in some theory-independent fashion. Rather, our theories and concepts partly determine what we will take the relevant phenomena to be, and they thus determine what a good theory must account for.This fact is quite evident in the field of attention research, in which even a cursory survey reveals that there is no general agreement about what a theory of attention ought to explain. Different theories have different views of what counts as attention. Some theories, for example, assume that there is a specific mechanism of attention, and they then ask how it works. Is it a cognitive system made of interacting subcomponents discretely localized in the brain? Or is attention a pool of resources we allocate to effortful tasks? Other theories are skeptical that there is such a "thing" as attention. They view attention instead as an epiphenomenon of the workings of multiple independent cognitive systems. Thus, whereas some theories conceptualize attention as a real "cause" of various cognitive events, others view it as a mere "effect" of multiple cognitive operations.In this article, we argue that there is no way to identify attention independent of some theory of attention, and we argue that theories of attention are structured largely by conceptual metaphors. These metaphors provide the logic for our thinking and reasoning about the nature, structure, and processes of attention, and we cannot do without some set of metaphors, either in commonsense or in scientific models of the mind.
