ANATOMY

Detailed explanation-1: -An injury to the frontal lobes may affect an individual’s ability to control emotions, impulses, and behavior or may cause difficulty recalling events or speaking.

Detailed explanation-2: -The frontal lobes subserve decision-making and executive control-that is, the selection and coordination of goal-directed behaviors. Current models of frontal executive function, however, do not explain human decision-making in everyday environments featuring uncertain, changing, and especially open-ended situations.

Detailed explanation-3: -Therefore, the prefrontal cortex is thought to be a leading brain area for making spontaneous and self-generated behaviors and internally driven decision-making.

Detailed explanation-4: -Frontal lobe damage seems to have an impact on divergent thinking, or flexibility and problem solving ability. There is also evidence showing lingering interference with attention and memory even after good recovery from a TBI (Stuss et al., 1985).

Detailed explanation-5: -Frontal lobe. The largest lobe of the brain, located in the front of the head, the frontal lobe is involved in personality characteristics, decision-making and movement.
