The Effects of Frontal Temporal Degeneration on Families As future Speech Language Pathologists‚ we first must understand a disorder and the effects it has on a client. In the beginning of the video‚ a woman described Frontal Temporal degeneration as a “progressive brain diseases attack and destroys ultimately a person’s ability to talk‚ think‚ walk‚ makes decisions‚ and show emotions”. When there is damage to the frontal lobe and/or temporal lobe alters a person’s behavior‚ their planning and
Premium Cerebral cortex Cerebrum Temporal lobe
The lobes of the brain. The cerebral cortex maybe be broken up into four lobes. Each lobe is named after the bones of the skull that cover them. In the very front is the frontal lobe‚ and behind that is the parietal lobe. At the very back of the brain we find the occipital lobe. And curving around each side of the brain we find the temporal lobe. Because the brain is made of two hemispheres there are pairs of each lobe. Frontal lobe: The most forward of the four lobes of the cerebral cortex

Person A: The frontal Lobe is the biggest lobe of the brain‚ it controls conscious thought‚ your personality‚ and voluntary movement. When someone has irreversible damage to the frontal lobe‚ they can loose their personality‚ attention span‚ and might not even be able to control their emotions. Another side effect is loosing your judgment. Some people may start using drugs or drinking alcohol when they never would have thought about it in the past. Person B: The parietal lobe is located in the back

October 26‚ 2014 Dr. Gigi Servis The brain is separated into four main lobes‚ which include the frontal‚ temporal‚ parietal‚ and occipital lobe. The frontal lobes are concerned with management of movement‚ from stimulation of a person muscles to conceptual planning on what to carry out. The temporal lobe is the main area for premature auditory processing and a high-level visual processing area. The frontal lobes are located on the front and the top area of the brain. Their major functions

The temporal lobe is a region of the cerebral cortex that is located beneath the lateral fissure on both cerebral hemispheres of the mammalian brain. The temporal lobes are involved in the retention of visual memories‚ processing sensory input‚ comprehending language‚ storing new memories‚ emotion‚ and deriving meaning. The frontal lobe is an area in the brain of mammals‚ located at the front of each cerebral hemisphere and positioned anterior to (in front of) the parietal lobe and superior

time this degeneration was referred to as Pick’s disease‚ a term allegedly coined by one of his pupils (Weder‚ et al‚ 2007)‚ and related to the progressive destruction of neurons mainly in the frontal and temporal lobes of the brain. This condition has subsequently been designated Frontal-Temporal Dementia (FTD)‚ and is considered second only to Alzheimer’s disease in terms of the most common cause of dementia (Pasquier & Petit‚ 1997). This essay explores FTD in relation to: what it is‚ the biological

The Parietal Lobe The brain is a fascinating yet complicated structure. Without it our involuntary functions while we sleep and our natural reflexes would vanish. Every part of our nervous system works together‚ it becomes one whole. One fundamental part of our brain‚ that is probably one of the most important to the disabled‚ is the Parietal Lobe which receives impulses that control one of our most important senses; touch. The Parietal Lobe is located near the center of the brain‚ behind the frontal
