title: Depth perception and location of brain lesions.
abstract: Depth perception was examined in 50 patients with brain lesions and in 16 controls using a polaroid test (Titmus). Error percentage and response time were measured. Intellectually impaired patients performed significantly worse than intellectually normal patients. On the other hand, location of the cerebral lesion (right, left, or generalized) had no significant effect; zero error percentages were observed among intellectually normal patients even with right or left parietal lesions. Intellectually normal patients did not differ from healthy controls.
