modern neuroscientific research help to solve the impotent challenge in curriculum design and teaching for enhancing students’ ability to organize information in a way that makes it efficient in response to an appropriate context such as problem solving and critical thinking via knowing about the mechanism of different type of memories especially long term memory. at first, we should to clarify...

Although frontal-lobe epilepsy accounts for a sizeable proportion of all partial epilepsies the neuropsychological characteristics have proved difficult to document. A possible explanation for this may lie in the impact of seizure-related variables. However, these have rarely been addressed in a frontal-lobe epilepsy sample. In this report the neuropsychological sequelae of the aetiology of epi...

OBJECTIVE Abnormalities in frontal lobe phosphorous metabolism in patients with bipolar disorder have been reported, but many of the patients studied were receiving lithium. In this study, medication-free bipolar patients were examined to determine abnormalities in frontal lobe high-energy phosphorous metabolism. METHOD In vivo phosphorous-31 magnetic resonance spectroscopic imaging was perfo...

Background: Clinical diagnosis of multiple system atrophy (MSA) relays on signs and symptoms that are often difficult to identify particularly at early stage. Indeed neuropathological studies have demonstrated that Parkinson variant of MSA (MSA-P) is the first cause of misdiagnosis in a cohort of patients presenting with parkinsonian features. But accurate diagnosis of these disorders is import...

OBJECTIVES To establish the link between frontal lobe dysfunction and violent and criminal behaviour, based on a review of relevant literature. METHODS Articles relating evidence of frontal lobe dysfunction with violence or crime were collected through a MEDLINE search using the keyword "frontal lobe" combined with the terms "aggression," "violence," "crime," "antisocial personality disorder,...

Research has indicated that the Ruff Figural Fluency Test [RFFT; Ruff, R. M., Light, R. H., & Evans, R. W. (1987). The Ruff Figural Fluency Test: A normative study with adults. Developmental Neuropsychology, 3, 37-51] is sensitive to right frontal lobe functioning. Indeed, research has differentiated between patients with left or right frontal lobe lesions using performance on the RFFT [Ruff, R...

• Unlike temporal lobe epilepsy (TLE), the many semiologic features of frontal lobe epilepsy (FLE) are protean, and often epileptiform discharges or ictal patterns on EEG are not localized. • We highlight 2 lesser-known signs associated with FLE: 1. Ictal pouting, also known as the chapeau de gendarme sign, is an easily recognizable facial expression with its origins in the frontal lobe, seen e...

This paper presents an AI model of integrated planning and reaction based on neuropsychological theories of similar human behavior. The model forges a link between frontal lobe models and AI planning systems that can improve our understanding of situated planning through a combined perspective. This paper first sets the frontal lobes in context, and then summarizes the frontal lobe theories upo...
