Rehabilitation of Executive Functioning in Patients with Frontal Lobe Brain Damage with Goal Management Training
Executive functioning deficits due to brain disease affecting frontal lobe functions cause significant real-life disability, yet solid evidence in support of executive functioning interventions is lacking. Goal Management Training (GMT), an executive functioning intervention that draws upon theories concerning goal processing and sustained attention, has received empirical support in studies of...
متن کاملFrontal Lobe/Executive Functioning
Abstract The frontal lobes represent a large area, consuming approximately one-third of the cortical surface of the brain. This area is involved directly and indirectly across a wide spectrum of human thought, behavior and emotions. The irony of the frontal lobes may best be described as the area of the brain we know the most about but understand the least. For example, frontal lobe functioning...
متن کاملDissociating executive mechanisms of task control following frontal lobe damage and Parkinson's disease.
Twelve patients with focal damage of the frontal cortex and 12 patients with mild, medicated, early stage Parkinson's disease switched between letter- and digit=naming tasks on every second trial of a task-switching paradigm. Compared with age- and IQ-matched control performance, patients with left-sided, but not right-sided, frontal damage exhibited markedly increased time costs associated wit...
متن کاملExecutive "Brake Failure" following Deactivation of Human Frontal Lobe
In the course of daily living, humans frequently encounter situations in which a motor activity, once initiated, becomes unnecessary or inappropriate. Under such circumstances, the ability to inhibit motor responses can be of vital importance. Although the nature of response inhibition has been studied in psychology for several decades, its neural basis remains unclear. Using transcranial magne...
