Some Experimental Views of Major Symptoms of Frontal Lobe Damage.
|
Most probable symptom
Disturbances of motor function Loss of fine movements Loss of strength Poor movement programming
Poor voluntary eye gaze Poor corollary discharge Broca’s aphasia
Loss of divergent thinking Reduced spontaneity (toward goal directed behavior) Poor strategy formation
Environmental control of behavior Poor response inhibition Risk taking and rule breaking Impaired associative learning
Poor temporal memory Poor recency memory Poor frequency estimate Poor self-order recall Poor delayed response
Impaired social behavior
Altered sexual behavior
Impaired olfactory discrimination
