In this test developed by Albert (1973), patients will be asked to mark all 60 of the short lines randomly presented on a horizontal A4 sheet. The Albert laterality score is the difference between the number of cancelled lines on the left and on the right (30 lines each). Positive scores indicate more omissions in the left half than in the right half. Scores are considered as pathological when superior to 2. The cancellation tasks will be used to look for improvements in cancellations made on the left side of the page.
