Study Notes
Brain Structure and Function
- The cerebral cortex is divided into four lobes: frontal, parietal, temporal, and occipital.
- The prefrontal cortex, located in the frontal lobe, is responsible for executive functions like planning, decision-making, and impulse control.
- The occipital lobe is primarily responsible for visual processing.
- Neurons are the basic building blocks of the nervous system.
- The relationship between brain structure and psychology is complex and dynamic.
- The development of the prefrontal cortex continues into early adulthood, contributing to maturation in decision-making abilities.
- The frontal lobe is associated with higher cognitive functions, such as decision-making, problem-solving, and social interactions.
- The parietal lobe plays a role in processing sensory information and spatial awareness.
- The temporal lobe is involved in auditory processing, memory, and language comprehension.
Neurons
- Neurons are not the only building blocks of the nervous system.
- Glial cells provide support and protection for neurons.
