The Broken Hearts test from the Oxford Cognitive Screen (OCS). Panel A: Egocentric neglect is operationalized as an asymmetry value calculated by subtracting the number of hits (full strikes) on the left side of the page from the hits on the right-hand side, also taking into account the total number of hits (the overall correct should be lower than 42, based on the cutoff from normative data). Only the shaded areas are taken into account to calculate the egocentric asymmetry score. Note that the shaded areas have been added only to clarify the scoring; the page presented to the patients contains only the hearts. Panel B: Allocentric neglect is operationalized as an asymmetry score calculated by subtracting the number of false positives (dashed strikes) with a left gap from the number of false positives with a right gap (see also Demeyere et al. 2015).
