Zusammenfassung
Aim: Tool use is a characteristic ability in humans, which can be disturbed after lesions to fronto-parietal structures, e.g. after stroke of the middle cerebral artery, resulting in apraxia. Tool use performance in apraxic patients is investigated by a variety of paradigms, ranging from the mere observation or pantomime of actions to their actual performance. As a result performance deficits vary depending on the used paradigm, creating an inhomogeneous picture of apraxic behavior. In our current study we establish a tool carousel allowing for the investigation of realistic performance of tool use. Methods: Pat…
