Frontal lobe |
Deliberate information of plans and intentions that dictate a persons conscious behavior. Damage to this area: difficulty carrying out consciously organized activity.
Contains Broca's area and primary motor cortex |
|
Damage to cerebellum |
Ataxia; dysarthric ataxia, abnormal gait, and disturbed balance |
|
Lesion in basil ganglia |
Dysarthria, unusual body posture, changes in body tone, involuntary and uncontrolled movements (dyskinesias) that interfere with a person's voluntary attempts to walk, speak, or do other activities |
|
Primary motor cortex |
Controls voluntary movements on skeletal muscles on the opposite side of the body |
|
Broca's area |
Controls motor movements involved in speech production and allows for well-articulated, fluent speech |
|
Parietal lobe contains |
Supramarginal gyrus and angular gyrus |
|
Parietal lobe contains |
Supramarginal gyrus and angular gyrus |
|
Supramarginal gyrus damage |
Causes conduction aphasia and agraphia |
|
Parietal lobe contains |
Supramarginal gyrus and angular gyrus |
|
Supramarginal gyrus damage |
Causes conduction aphasia and agraphia |
|
Angular gyrus damage |
Writing, reading, and naming difficult and transcortical sensory aphasia |
|
Left hemisphere of temporal lobe controls... |
Speech sound analysis (allows someone to recognize words and sentences) |
|
Left hemisphere of temporal lobe controls... |
Speech sound analysis (allows someone to recognize words and sentences) |
|
Right hemisphere of temporal lobe controls... |
Analysis of nonverbal sound stimuli like environmental noises and music |
|
Left hemisphere of temporal lobe controls... |
Speech sound analysis (allows someone to recognize words and sentences) |
|
Right hemisphere of temporal lobe controls... |
Analysis of nonverbal sound stimuli like environmental noises and music |
|
Wernicke's area |
Located in left hemisphere of the temporal lobe
A lesion here would produce fluent but meaningless speech and deficits in language comprehension |
|
Left hemisphere of temporal lobe controls... |
Speech sound analysis (allows someone to recognize words and sentences) |
|
Right hemisphere of temporal lobe controls... |
Analysis of nonverbal sound stimuli like environmental noises and music |
|
Wernicke's area |
Located in left hemisphere of the temporal lobe
A lesion here would produce fluent but meaningless speech and deficits in language comprehension |
|
Wernicke's area and Broca's area are connected by |
The arcuate fasciculus |
|
Damage to corpus callosum |
Problems in naming, reading, movement, and other functions |
|
Damage to middle cerebral artery |
Results in strokes, aphasia, reading and writing difficulties, contralateral hemiplegia, and an impaired sense of pain, temperature, touch, and position |
|
Damage to anterior cerebral artery |
Cognitive deficits (impaired judgement, concentration, reasoning) |
