Important in working memory.
which lobe?
Frontal Lobe
Sensory hub
which lobe?
Parietal lobe
Important in visuospatial sketchpad
-3
which lobes?
Visual cortex, Parietal, Occipital & Frontal lobe
makes sense of auditory information
which area?
Wernicke’s Area
Wernicke’s Area also known as what?
inner ear
receptive
Wernicke’s aphasia characteristics?
Their own speech is fluent but can not understand what people say them.
So their answers lack sense.
Remote memory
which area?
Neocortex
Memory. Declarative.
which area?
Hippocampus
Procedural memory
which areas?
-3
Cerebellum & Striata (in basal ganglia) & Motor Cortex
Rudimentary Movements and balance
which area?
Basal Ganglia
Classical conditioning. Fear.
which areas?
-2
Amygdala & Cerebellum
Gives further smoothing of movements
which area?
Cerebellum
Proprioception information goes here.
which area?
Cerebellum
inhibit irrelevant responses
which area?
prefrontal cortex
first lobe change with age?
frontal lobe
Spatial processing, e.g. spatial relations
which area?
-2 names
Occipitoparietal pathway/ dorsal stream
Object recognition, e.g. colour, size, shape
which area?
-2 names
Occipitotemporal pathway/ ventral stream
find your way home
which area?
-2 names
Occipitoparietal pathway/ dorsal stream
expressing information (inner voice).
which area?
Broca’s Area
Brocas aphasia characteristics?
who does their speech sound like?
Can understand speech but express speech like yoda; not fluent, keep halting
Procedural memory
-3
Cerebellum & Striata (in basal ganglia) & Motor Cortex
which aphasia has is not fluent?
Boca’s aphasia
which aphasia can can answer but answers lack sense?
Wernicke’s Area
which area is receptive for hearing?
which area is expressive for hearing?
receptive = Wernicke’s Area
expressive Broca’s aphasia
define apraxia?
inability to perform movement
praxia means what?
perform
ataxia means what?
inability to exert control, can still perform movement.
