This information is then matched to the cortical functions that produced them to help make conclusions about anatomical functioning and responsiveness.
She could not stop herself from performing a mental "level-three diagnostic" on her own cortical functions, imagining the worst.
Alzheimer's disease is characterized by the loss of cortical functions like language and motor skills.
Knowledge of cortical function was relatively limited by the 1950s.
The separation or lateralization of cortical function was discovered by experiments on brain-damaged individuals.
None of them is showing any higher cortical function at all, neither reaction to sensation nor even what we would regard as thought.
Once allowance has been made for variations in cortical function it should then be possible to identify the function of the subcortical area.
One doctor testified that, on an examination, he had found Miss Cruzan "does have cortical function."
Further investigations carried out in space will perhaps reveal that other higher cortical functions are impaired in weightless conditions.
There is also extensive research on role of Pars triangularis and cortical functions such as language.
