The Center for Neuro Skills states that‚ "One of the most universal consequences of frontal damage can be a vivid change in social manners. An individual ’s character can undergo momentous changes subsequent to an injury to the frontal lobes‚ particularly when both lobes are concerned" (Engelfried‚

There are four lobes making up the cerebral cortex. The frontal lobe is located in the front of the brain. It’s associated with cognition‚ motor skills and reasoning (something that sets humans apart from other organisms). The parietal lobe is associated with processing sensory information. The temporal lobe‚ located below the parietal lobe‚ “behind” the ear‚ is associated with interpreting sounds. Since the hippocampus is located here‚ it’s also linked to memories. The occipital lobe is associated

given paid incentives for completing a task perfectly. Human brains are divided into 5 main segments; the cerebellum‚ the occipital lobe‚ parietal lobe‚ temporal lobe and frontal lobe. The study focuses solely on the frontal lobe because it houses our motor functions‚ problem solving skills‚ etc. The frontal lobe is divided into two separate portions‚ the left lobe and the right. Both are said to own different characteristics and control different functions. Etienne Koechlin‚ a professor at the
