Left hemispatial neglect and overt orienting in naturalistic conditions. Role of high-level and stimulus-driven signals

Deficits of visuospatial orienting in brain-damaged patients affected by hemispatial neglect have been extensively investigated. Nonetheless, spontaneous spatial orienting in naturalistic conditions is still poorly understood. Here, we investigated the role played by top down and stimulus-driven signals in overt spatial orienting of neglect patients during free viewing of short videos portraying everyday life situations.
