Detailed explanation-1: -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-2: -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-3: -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.
Detailed explanation-4: -The most important function of the prefrontal cortex is the executive function. Among a variety of executive functions in which the prefrontal cortex participates, decision-making is one of the most important.
Detailed explanation-5: -The frontal lobes are important for voluntary movement, expressive language and for managing higher level executive functions.
