Journal Article
The design of a new letter chart for measuring contrast sensitivity
TL;DR: It is concluded that, for a clinical test, letters are more suitable than gratings, and a mathematical model of the observer and the chart-testing procedure has been used to predict how the accuracy and repeatability of the test score depend on the parameters of the chart and observer.
Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: A significant association was found between the laterality of focal or asymmetrical generalized discharges and impairment of one or other task, left-sided discharges being associated with errors in the verbal task and right-sided with impairment of the nonverbal test.
Journal ArticleDOI
Frontal lesions and sustained attention.
TL;DR: It is argued that at slow rates when the task was monotonous patients with right-frontal lesions were less able than others to sustain attention voluntarily.
