Abstract
The potential of using prism adaptation for treating spatial neglect (SN) was questioned when recent meta-analyses found inconsistent evidence. However, analyses of clinical datasets support the use of prism adaptation treatment (PAT) in reducing SN and improving function. The main objective of this review is to evaluate the current state of the evidence of PAT therapeutic effects, identify knowledge gaps, and make suggestions to guide further research and support clinical decision-making. We used the framework of the National Institutes of Health (NIH) Stage Model for Behavioral Intervention Development which provides guidance on best practices for developing effective behavioral interventions that can be implemented in real-world settings. This model emphasizes the interplay between mechanisms underlying therapeutic effects ("who" should receive the treatment and "how" best does it work?) and considerations of adaptability and feasibility in real-world settings. The present critical review led to the following conclusion: the use of the NIH Stage Model reveals the heterogeneity of PAT studies and challenges in advancing PAT as an effective intervention. The key mechanisms such as prism strength, treatment intensity, arm visibility and activities during treatment, and evaluation methods lack consensus. Therefore, clinical research teams must continue to collect evidence to determine critical mechanisms and the optimal protocol. Further research identifying the optimal PAT protocol is needed before another meta-analysis on PAT's clinical efficacy should be conducted again.

Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
