Prism adaptation may alleviate some symptoms of spatial neglect. However, the mechanism through which this technique works is still unclear. ⋯ After two consecutive days of prism adaptation, participants demonstrated a significant improvement in 'aiming' spatial bias, with no effect on 'where' spatial bias. These findings suggest that prism adaptation may primarily affect motor-intentional 'aiming' bias in poststroke spatial neglect patients.
