This study examines methods to better predict improvement of a hidden disability of functional vision, spatial neglect, following stroke. Spatial neglect is a tendency to make visual judgment and movement errors mislocating the body and objects in space. The investigators are using specialized statistical methods to compute the proportion of improvement accounted for by personal characteristics of each stroke survivor, the proportion of improvement accounted for by the unique visual-spatial errors made by each subject, and the proportion of improvement accounted for by each treatment administered. The investigators will also examine whether brain imaging predicts how rapidly improvement occurs. Lastly, the study tests whether improvements that are meaningful to the survivor can be measured in a way that still allows detection of small and scientifically eloquent performance changes.
