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

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)
