the most anterior lobe of the brain; it is bounded posteriorly by the central sulcus and inferiorly by the lateral fissure; this lobe is associated with higher cognitive functions and is involved in the control of voluntary muscle movement
The front part of the brain. This is the area involved in movement, planning, reasoning, organizing, problem solving, learning new information, speaking fluently, and personality.
The frontal lobe is the largest of the lobes, making up one third of the cortex. This lobe predominates planning, initiation, and inhibition of voluntary motion, as well as executive cognitive function.
lobe of the brain containing frontal association, speech and motor skills.
The front part of the brain (see Appendix 1). It may be divided into DORSOLATERAL AREA, ORBITO- MEDIAL AREA, and MOTOR STRIP (see Appendix 1). The first two make up most of the frontal lobe and give rise to the major 'frontal' symptoms. The characteristic function of the frontal lobes is to drive and monitor behaviour. While other parts of the brain are concerned with making sense of inputs, the frontal lobes are responsible for (1) driving outputs - for attention to task, for 'get up and go', and also (2) for regulating outputs - for ensuring social and sexual behaviour is appropriate to the situation.
The portion of the anterior cerebral hemisphere from the frontal pole to the sulcus centralis (central sulcus). image
that part of the cerebral cortex in either hemisphere of the brain lying directly behind the forehead
located at the front of the neo-cortex behind the forehead, this major division of the cortex deals with the most advanced human functions. The most forward segments, the prefrontal lobes, are associated with complex thought processes, such as planning, anticipation, judgment, problem solving and inhibition of impulses.
four main convolutions in front of the central sulcus of the cerebrum. Functions such as motor, speech and behavior are associated with this area of the brain. In addition, emotional control, inhibition of impulses, motivation and social abilities. (Part of the cerebral hemisphere)
The section of the cerebral cortex involved in planning, judgment, speaking, and muscle movements.: The symbol that represents general intelligence.
Region of the cerebral hemispheres anterior to the central fissure.
section of the brain directly behind the forehead; divided into right and left parts.
Located behind the forehead, it is responsible for voluntary movement, emotion, planning and execution of behavior, intellect, memory, speech and writing.
Front part of the brain; involved in planning, organizing, problem solving, selective attention, personality and a variety of "higher cognitive functions."
The biggest part of the cerebral cortex is vital for cognitive functions and control of voluntary activity.
The lobe of the cerebral cortex that is responsible for motor activity, speech, and thought processes. PICTURE
The most anterior area of the cerebrum. Regulates and mediates the ï3/4“higherï3/4” intellectual functions and has intricate connections to other areas of the brain including deeper structures such as the limbic system.
One of the four divisions of each cerebral hemisphere. The frontal lobe is important for controlling movement and associating the functions of other cortical areas.
located in upper region of the head, behind the forehead; frontal lobe controls decision-making, problem-solving or planning and motor movement. ( See Also: lobe, parietal lobe, temporal lobe, occipital lobe.)
One of the four divisions (parietal, temporal, occipital) of each hemisphere of the cerebral cortex. It has a role in controlling movement and associating the functions of other cortical areas.
The forward or upper half of each cerebral hemisphere, in front of the central sulcus, active in reasoning and other higher mental processes.
a part of the brain important for personality, producing speech, processing language, initiating activities, and moving body parts
Area of cerebrum; speech production, the elaboration of thought and emotion, and skilled movements are controlled here.
The lobe in each cerebral hemisphere that includes the prefrontal area and the motor projection areas.
The part of each cerebral hemisphere primarily concerned with planning and organising, attention and the control and regulation of behaviour and emotion.
The frontal lobe is one of the five lobes of the cortex and its primary function is receiving input from the rest of the brain, planning, organizing, problem solving, selective attention, personality, motor control, and a variety of higher cognitive functions, including behavior and emotions.
The anterior (toward the face) area in the cerebral hemisphere involved in emotion, thought, reasoning, and behavior.
the top, front regions of each of the cerebral hemispheres. They are used for reasoning, emotions, judgment, and voluntary movement.
The largest area of the brain that lies in the front of the cranial cavity and is important for control of voluntary movement or activity, and cognition and feelings.
A portion of each cerebral hemisphere, in front of the central fissure. See also occipital lobe, parietal lobe, temporal lobe.
The frontal lobe is an area in the brain of vertebrates. Located at the front of each cerebral hemisphere, frontal lobes are positioned in front of (anterior to) the parietal lobes. The temporal lobes are located beneath and behind the frontal lobes.
