four lobes that are within the brain that control the way our behavior is. The frontal lobe and the temporal lobe are the two that we are going to discuss and how they control our behavior. We will also look at what heredity has to do with our behavior and if the lobes were damaged what could the affects be. Broca’s and Wernicke’s had aphesis on the lobes. The frontal lobe is associated with being able to have higher mental abilities and play a role in your sense of self. The frontal lobe is also

dysfunction? Jennifer Uekermann & Irene Daum Institute of Cognitive Neuroscience‚ Ruhr-University of Bochum‚ Bochum‚ Germany ABSTRACT Aims Alcoholism is associated with a range of cognitive deficits.

Social cognition is thought to be processed in the PFC‚ but so far only few studies have addressed the issue of social cognition

Because every part of the brain controls a certain part of human behavior‚ damage to a certain part of the head will only affect certain behaviors of an individual. In addition‚ damage to certain areas can cause aphasia‚ which is a speech disturbance resulting from brain damage (Coon & Mitterer‚ 2013). As

in cognitive psychology is that of Phineas Gage. A man who suffered from an injury to his prefrontal lobes thirty years before the field of Psychology even began (Moulin‚ 2006). However‚ psychologists’ continue to study his brain and the effects of his injury and its role in cognitive functions years later. Phineas Gage was a foreman at a railroad who suffered damage to his prefrontal lobes as a result of an accidental explosion in the year 1848. This explosion caused an iron bar about a meter

brain that support certain cognitive functions. For example‚ the area in the brain that is more dorsal and anterior than any other area in the brain is known as the frontal lobe. According to Grieve (2010)‚ the frontal lobe supports many cognitive functions. Examples of the cognitive functions that are supported in the frontal lobe are elimination of inappropriate social responses‚ understanding impending outcomes‚ and blunting emotions (Grieve‚ 2010). Another area in the brain that supports cognitive

and if it did‚ how and what areas of the brain did it affect. In this case‚ if the “miracle” drug targeted the frontal lobe some possible consequences would be problems with motor functions‚ issues with problem solving skills‚ issues with memory and language‚ and changes in emotional control that could cause impulsive and rash behavior. If the drug only affected the occipital lobe it would cause the loss of visual capability‚ loss of ability to identify colors‚ and it could cause hallucinations. If
