Detailed explanation-1: -The prefrontal cortex is primarily responsible for the ‘higher’ brain functions of the frontal lobes, including decision-making, problem-solving, intelligence, and emotion regulation. This area has also been found to be associated with the social skills and personality of humans.
Detailed explanation-2: -The anterior association area is in the frontal lobes. It is rostral to the postcentral gyri, Rolandic fissure, and premotor areas. It has Sylvian fissure as its posterior boundary. It is referred to as prefrontal cortex.
Detailed explanation-3: -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-4: -Your frontal lobe is at the front of your brain behind your forehead. Functions of your frontal lobe include: Decision-making, problem-solving. Conscious thought.
