Neglect severity was determined by computing two different scores: (1) percentage of tests positive for neglect (based on asymmetries in response latency and/or accuracy in each test), relative to the total number of tests given to the patient; (2) percentage of omissions on Bells’ test, which is one of the most sensitive test for neglect and was given to all patients on all sessions. The same subgroups were constituted and the same results were obtained when defining the severity subgroup with either score.
