  2. Parietal lobe - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Parietal_lobe

    The parietal lobe is one of the four major lobes of the cerebral cortex in the brain of mammals. The parietal lobe is positioned above the temporal lobe and behind the frontal lobe and central sulcus. The parietal lobe integrates sensory information among various modalities, including spatial sense and navigation (proprioception), the main ...

  3. Frontal lobe - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Frontal_lobe

    The frontal lobe is the largest of the four major lobes of the brain in mammals, and is located at the front of each cerebral hemisphere (in front of the parietal lobe and the temporal lobe). It is parted from the parietal lobe by a groove between tissues called the central sulcus and from the temporal lobe by a deeper groove called the lateral ...

  4. 10–20 system (EEG) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/10–20_system_(EEG)

    10–20 system (EEG) The 10–20 system or International 10–20 system is an internationally recognized method to describe and apply the location of scalp electrodes in the context of an EEG exam, polysomnograph sleep study, or voluntary lab research. This method was developed to maintain standardized testing methods ensuring that a subject's ...

  5. Neuroanatomy of memory - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Neuroanatomy_of_memory

    The parietal lobe is located directly behind the central sulcus, superior to the occipital lobe and posterior to the frontal lobe, visually at the top of the back of the head. [18] The make up of the parietal lobe is defined by four anatomical boundaries in the brain, providing a division of all the four lobes. [18]

  6. Frontoparietal network - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Frontoparietal_network

    Frontoparietal network. The frontoparietal network (FPN), generally also known as the central executive network (CEN) or, more specifically, the lateral frontoparietal network (L-FPN) (see Nomenclature), is a large-scale brain network primarily composed of the dorsolateral prefrontal cortex and posterior parietal cortex, [4] around the ...

  7. Lobes of the brain - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lobes_of_the_brain

    The parietal lobe is positioned above the occipital lobe and behind the frontal lobe and central sulcus.. The parietal lobe integrates sensory information among various modalities, including spatial sense and navigation (proprioception), the main sensory receptive area for the sense of touch (mechanoreception) in the somatosensory cortex which is just posterior to the central sulcus in the ...

  8. Parieto-frontal integration theory - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Parieto-frontal...

    The parieto-frontal integration theory (P-FIT) considers intelligence to relate to how well different brain regions integrate to form intelligent behaviors. The theory proposes that large scale brain networks connect brain regions, including regions within frontal, parietal, temporal, and cingulate cortices, underlie the biological basis of human intelligence.

  9. Hemispatial neglect - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hemispatial_neglect

    Brain areas in the parietal and frontal lobes are associated with the deployment of attention (internally, or through eye movements, head turns or limb reaches) into contralateral space. Neglect is most closely related to damage to the temporo-parietal junction and posterior parietal cortex. [7]
