What kind of visual spatial attention is impaired in neglect?

Two conclusions can be drawn from these experiments: first, the bulk of the abnormal deployment of spatial attention in neglect patients is related to an impairment of exogenous attention which cannot be compensated for by a spared endogenous control. Second, hemianopia does not affect the paradoxical speeding up of RT typically found in the mid-periphery of the ipsilesional field of neglect patients.
