Frontal Lobes and Memory
Casual observations of patients with focal frontal lobe lesions often reveal little if any cognitive impairment (Fuster, 1989; Hebb, 1945). At the same time, such patients display an assortment of cognitive deficits upon neuropsychological assessment (Janowsky et al., 1989c; Luria, 1980; Stuss & Benson, 1984). With respect to memory, focal frontal injury does not produce a severe amnesic disord...
متن کاملFrontal lobes and aging: Deterioration and Compensation
Until the mid 1990s, available evidence regarding neurocognitive aging could be summarized in a simple statement: cognitive deficits in healthy older adults are largest for tasks that are highly dependent on executive control processes because these processes are mediated by the prefrontal cortex (PFC), which is the region most disrupted by healthy aging. This view, known as the frontal lobe hy...
متن کاملRegions of the Frontal Lobes
1. Primary Motor Cortex (M1, Brodmann area 4): The primary motor cortex is located on the precentral gyrus just rostral to the central sulcus. It is the source of cortical neurons that will project to the brainstem and spinal cord to activate neurons involved in the control of voluntary movements. It receives input from the neighboring primary somatosensory area (S1, on the postcentral gyrus) a...
متن کاملTheory of mind and the frontal lobes.
BACKGROUND Theory of mind (ToM) is the ability to attribute mental states to other individuals. Its cerebral organization is not enough established, even though the literature suggests the relevant role of the frontal lobes. OBJECTIVE To evaluate frontal lobe patients and controls in ToM tests. METHOD We studied 20 patients with lesions limited to the frontal lobes (as shown by CT or MRI), ...
متن کاملThe subcortex, frontal lobes, and psychosis.
Goldberg (1985) has argued that disruption of the mesolimbic/ mesocortical dopamine system by long-term neuroleptic treatment may be responsible for producing the tardive dysmentia syndrome (Wilson et al. 1983), which can be seen as similar to the pseudopsychopathic presentation sometimes observed following damage to orbitomedial frontal cortex (Blumer and Benson 1975; Damasio 1979). Similarly,...
