Abstract
Patients with visual neglect generally fail to respond to an item placed on the left of a target location, even when both stimuli are situated in the right visual field. Little is known, however, about the level of processing for the unattended items. Two patients with left visual neglect served as subjects in several experiments measuring passive contextual effects of a left-sided item on responses to a focal target. The results reveal that a neglected item may influence the speed of responding. The findings are interpreted relative to the loci of context effects in normal subjects.
