Study Notes
Cerebral Cortex: Multimodal Association Areas
- Sensations, thoughts, and emotions become conscious in most of the frontal lobe cortex.
- Anterior Association: Located in the prefrontal cortex, involved in recall, intellect, complex learning activities, personality, and working memory.
- Posterior Association: Comprises parts of the temporal, parietal, and occipital lobes. Crucial for recognizing patterns, faces, and spatial awareness. Includes Wernicke's area.
- Limbic Association: Involves the cingulate gyrus, parahippocampal gyrus, and hippocampus. Important for processing the emotional impact of a situation. The hippocampus is associated with memories.
