Abstract :
The authors developed a computerized evaluation system for visual inattention of brain damaged patients. This system uses response time and error rate as quantitative indices of the visual attention. By experiment, it was confirmed that this method was a convenient and effective method to evaluate the visual inattention of brain damaged patients
