Study Notes
Brain Function and Regions
- The basal ganglia is responsible for movement and plays a role in predicting future outcomes.
Frontal Lobe Functions
- The primary function of the frontal lobe is to facilitate executive functions such as working memory, attention, and impulse inhibition.
- The frontal lobe contributes to personality by influencing decision-making, planning, and social behavior.
- The frontal lobe is responsible for planning and preparing motor commands.
- The prefrontal cortex, a region within the frontal lobe, evaluates the social, economic, and legal repercussions of an action.
Language Production
- Broca's area, located in the frontal lobe, is responsible for language production and is adjacent to the primary motor cortex.
