The basal ganglia and cognitive pattern generators.
This article introduces the notion of cognitive pattern generators and suggests, by analogy with the central pattern generators of the motor system, that these pattern generators operate to organize neural activity underlying aspects of action-oriented cognition. It is further proposed that the basal ganglia are involved in the control of cognitive as well as motor pattern generators. Disorders...
متن کاملSensory and cognitive functions of the basal ganglia.
Recent studies have found that the basal ganglia are involved in diverse behavioral activities and suggest that they have executive functions. Highlights from the past year include anatomical and clinical studies that have used sophisticated, novel methods to confirm a role for the basal ganglia in somatosensory discrimination, visual perception, spatial working memory and habit learning.
متن کاملClinical Motor and Cognitive Neurobehavioral Relationships in the Basal Ganglia
The traditional view that the basal ganglia and cerebellum are simply involved in the control of movement has been challenged in recent years. One of the pivotal reasons for this reappraisal has been new information about basal ganglia and cerebellar connections with the cerebral cortex. In essence, recent anatomical studies have revealed that these connections are organized into discrete circu...
متن کاملCognitive-motor interactions of the basal ganglia in development
Neural circuits linking activity in anatomically segregated populations of neurons in subcortical structures and the neocortex throughout the human brain regulate complex behaviors such as walking, talking, language comprehension, and other cognitive functions associated with frontal lobes. The basal ganglia, which regulate motor control, are also crucial elements in the circuits that confer hu...
متن کاملStuttering and the basal ganglia
Based on personal experiences I have felt that the lack of real knowledge about the underlying mechanisms of stuttering is a problem in many ways. It makes it more difficult to treat, it leaves the field open to unfounded speculations, and it makes it difficult for persons who stutter to reach self-understanding. For this reason, I changed my vocation from engineering to research on the nature ...
