Figure 3

Crossmodal extinction in peripersonal space. The patient sits at a table, and visually fixates a point at the same level as, and equidistant between their two hands (‘F’, filled circle). A. Visual stimuli (V, open circles) presented near the right hand interfere with the detection of simultaneously presented tactile stimuli (‘T’, open triangles) on the left hand. B. This interference is markedly reduced if the right hand is held away from the visual stimulus, behind the patient’s back. See main text and di Pellegrino et al. (1997) for details.
