N2 - Studies of the effects of brain lesions on behaviour have informed brain sciences for more than 100 years. Paradoxical results from some experiments, however, contradict widely accepted logic for imputing function to structure, including the `gold standard'; double dissociation. Orienting systems have produced clear examples of paradoxical lesion effects and provide the opportunity to identify reliable inference for imputing function.
