2) What is the primary difference between left and right sided brain function

3) Define Unilateral Spatial Neglect (USN) and differentiate between the four subtypes

4) How would one assess a patient for USN, how could you differentiate between an allocentric and an egocentric USN?

5) List the 8 forms of apraxia, providing a definition of each and a method of assessment.

Long response Explain the concept of Pusher syndrome, elaborate with the main issues, the degrees of severity, and treatment ideas that consider the added characteristics depending on whether it is a left or right side hemisphere affected.
