Abstract
Two experiments looking at the perceived hand width and fingers’ length of patients with personal neglect (PN) and a group of healthy controls, showing that: i) PN patients perceived their left hand significantly smaller that their right hand and ii) a significantly larger underestimation of finger length for both hands.
