Spatial disorders are a heterogeneous collection of disorders frequently encountered following brain damage to either hemisphere. These disorders can greatly impact the daily activities of a brain injured patient and their presence is one of the major disruptive factors impeding rehabilitation success. The purpose of this paper is to review relevant research on the pathological organization of spatial behaviors. This review began with a theoretical analysis of spatial disorders based on the empirical distinction of the levels at which spatial information is acquired and processed, proceeding from disorders occurring at the stage of spatial exploration to those of spatial perception, spatial cognition and spatial orientation. Findings of relevant clinical and experimental research were discussed, particularly with reference to their theoretical implications and practical relevance. This review identified several gaps in research on this area that remain to be filled and provided recommendations for further study.
