Disease relevance of Space Perception

METHODS AND PROCEDURES: Twenty participants with severe traumatic brain injury (n = 10) and matched controls (n = 10) completed a series of tests of focused attention (Stroop test), divided attention (Trail Making Test), visual perception (Visual Object and Space Perception Battery) and two tasks of inattentional blindness [1].

High impact information on Space Perception

CONCLUSIONS: Tasks measuring mainly attention, object and space perception and executive functions adequately assess the progression of HD disease [2].
Mirror symmetry and parallelism: two opposite rules for the identity transform in space perception and their unified treatment by the Great Circle Model [3].
The test consists of 8 subtests: 4 measure visual object perception (Incomplete Letters, Silhouettes, Object Decision, and Progressive Silhouettes) while the other 4 measure visual space perception (Dot Counting, Position Discrimination, Number Location, and Cube Analysis) [4].
Sensory and sensori-motor adaptations in strabismus: their role in space perception [5].
