Outline of Final Research Achievements |
To evaluate patients’ capability of vehicle driving, author developed a visual scanning task, a direction task, and a road sign recognition task. Sixty-seven cognitively intact older drivers living in the community and 58 stroke drivers were included. Results showed that stroke drivers had lower visual scanning ability, visual constructive ability, and non-verbal reasoning and knowledge of road sign. These results suggest that newly developed tasks could evaluate driving capability.
