Perceptual and premotor neglect: is there an ideal task to categorise patients?
This review focuses on Edoardo Bisiach's particular input into the perceptual/premotor taxonomy within the neglect syndrome and assesses arguments and experimental designs that have been presented both for and against the dichotomy. Bisiach made most crucial contributions to this topic as well as increasing insights into the syndrome of hemispatial neglect more generally. Most importantly, he elucidated its relevance to visual neuropsychological and neuroscientific research.
