Microcomputer-based cognitive rehabilitation of visual neglect: three multiple-baseline single-case studies.
Cognitive remediation programmes were delivered by microcomputer to three patients showing visual neglect using single-case experimental methodology with multiple-baseline across-function designs. The patients included one head injury case and two cases of cerebrovascular accident. Clear differences were produced in target functions. The most likely mechanism for this change was the learning of new verbal regulation strategies, although other, non-verbal, mechanisms may have been involved.
