As we move our eyes and attention around us, we are capable of interacting with any part of our immediate environment. It is intriguing, therefore, to discover that the upper and leftward features of an object are more salient than those on the bottom or right. By investigating the nature of these attentional biases in normal individuals, this research will improve our understanding of the thought processes and brain structures that control spatial attention. This research has important implications for the development of remedial programs for patients with attentional disorders. The test we use to measure attentional asymmetries has the potential to become an important tool for the early detection of clinical abnormalities in attention.

当我们移动眼睛和注意力时，我们能够与周围环境的任何部分互动。因此，有趣的是，我们发现一个物体的上部和下部的特征比底部或右边的特征更显著。通过研究正常人的注意力偏差的性质，这项研究将提高我们对控制空间注意力的思维过程和大脑结构的理解。这项研究对发展注意力障碍患者的治疗方案具有重要意义。我们用来测量注意力不对称的测试有可能成为早期发现临床注意力异常的重要工具。
