I am working with a brain-damaged patient who has bilateral lesions of
the frontal and temporal lobes from carbon-monoxide poisoning He
exhibits unawareness of his deficits, and I would be very grateful if
anyone could send me copies of any of the questionnaires that are
designed to access level of unawareness of deficit
in clinical populations (e.g Schacter and McGlynn, Sunderland and
Baddeley)
Also, I would be interested in any views on unawareness of deficits or
self-awareness, and their neural or psychological bases.
Thanks, Bob James (Birmingham Cognitive Science dept.)
