| Symptoms such as neglect and anosognosia after right-sided lesions and aphasia after left-sided lesions frequently exist with contraversive pushing because the relevant brain structures associated with these functions lie in close proximity to each other. Thi denial (Babinski's Syndrome) was first thought to pertain only to denial of physical movement or visual sensation (Babinski, 1918, Nathanson, Bergman & Gordon, 1952), but the concept of anosognosia was later extended to neglect of left-sided complex sensorimotor praxia (Hecaen, Penfield, Bertland, & Malmo, 1956) and to unawareness of disabilities and of other stressful experiences (Weinstein & Kahn, 1955). 41) This is the only measure of ULN that also considers anosognosia. |
