  2. Frontal lobe injury - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Frontal_lobe_injury

    Following a frontal lobe injury, an individual's abilities to make good choices and recognize consequences are often impaired. Memory impairment is another common effect associated with frontal lobe injuries, but this effect is less documented and may or may not be the result of flawed testing. [ 3 ]

  3. Inferior frontal gyrus - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Inferior_frontal_gyrus

    Orbital part of inferior frontal gyrus (pars orbitalis) (cortex inferior and anterior to the horizontal ramus of the lateral sulcus) Cytoarchitecturally the opercular part of the inferior frontal gyrus is known as Brodmann area 44 (BA44). The triangular part of the inferior frontal gyrus is known as Brodmann area 45 (BA45), and the orbital part ...

  4. Broca's area - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Broca's_area

    They had lost the ability to speak after injury to the posterior inferior frontal gyrus (pars triangularis) (BA45) of the brain. [7] Since then, the approximate region he identified has become known as Broca's area, and the deficit in language production as Broca's aphasia , also called expressive aphasia .

  5. Brodmann area 44 - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brodmann_area_44

    Brodmann area 44, or BA44, is part of the frontal cortex in the human brain.Situated just anterior to premotor cortex and on the lateral surface, inferior to BA9.. This area is also known as pars opercularis (of the inferior frontal gyrus), and it refers to a subdivision of the cytoarchitecturally defined frontal region of cerebral cortex.

  6. Ventrolateral prefrontal cortex - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/.../Ventrolateral_prefrontal_cortex

    From this perspective, the right lateral PFC, along with a region spanning the right temporoparietal junction (TPJ) and the inferior parietal lobule, are engaged when abrupt onsets occur in the environment, suggesting that these regions are involved in re-orienting attention to perceptual events that occur outside the current focus of attention ...

  7. Frontal lobe disorder - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Frontal_lobe_disorder

    Frontal lobe disorder, also frontal lobe syndrome, is an impairment of the frontal lobe of the brain due to disease or frontal lobe injury. [5] The frontal lobe plays a key role in executive functions such as motivation, planning, social behaviour, and speech production. Frontal lobe syndrome can be caused by a range of conditions including ...

  8. Neuroscience of multilingualism - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Neuroscience_of...

    Neuroscience of multilingualism is the study of multilingualism within the field of neurology.These studies include the representation of different language systems in the brain, the effects of multilingualism on the brain's structural plasticity, aphasia in multilingual individuals, and bimodal bilinguals (people who can speak at least one sign language and at least one oral language).

  9. Emotional lateralization - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Emotional_lateralization

    Damage to the inferior parietal region including the anterior (supramarginal gyrus) and posterior (angular gyrus) regions resulted in reduced SCR. Damage to the right hemisphere in these regions resulted in a significant (p < 0.001) decrease in SCR while the damage to the left hemisphere of these regions did not (p > 0.05). [n 12]
