Document Summary
Acb lecture 11 higher function and limbic system. Function of cerebellum is ipsilateral: the fibres on the other hand are ipsilateral and contralateral, when you look at ascending pathways (the ventral spinocerebellar) crosses twice. It comes into the spinal cord, synapses, crosses the midline in spinal cord: ascends and goes through the superior cerebral peduncle, and then crosses again to ipsilateral side. Looking back on stressful math and stressful stroop test. Insular cortex is an area that is visceral cortex: dlpfc there are serious differences between reactors and non reactors, that area is responsible for executive function - trying to plan to be perfect. Wernicke"s area: on left side of cerebral cortex: brocas: speech generation, wernickes: speech comprehension. Primary cortex areas intact: why might you get damage to the cortex, stroke, gsw to the head, tactile agnosia. Inability to understand touch, vibration, conscious proprioception info: visual agnosia, auditory agnosia. Inability to understand what you"re hearing: superior temporal lobe.
