Interventions
multisensory rehabilitation paradigm
In initial ("training") sessions, subjects will be exposed (and respond) to spatiotemporally congruent pairs of visual-auditory stimuli presented within their blinded field, with occasional probes of unisensory visual stimuli on both sides of space. Once recovery of visual responsiveness in the contralesional field is observed, sessions will alternate between "training/testing" and "testing only" sessions in which performance on the visual battery will be re-assessed.
