This result is in line with the parieto-frontal integration theory, assuming that general intelligence is particularly associated with effective parieto-frontal information processing (Jung & Haier, 2007).
Frontal optic flow information has been previously used in robot design to solve obstacle avoidance problems [47], [48], [52], ground avoidance problems [35], [36], [44], [45], and speed control problems [53], [54].
Although neurons throughout the frontal cortex encode information about the expected value of an outcome, how these neurons influence action selection clearly differentiates frontal areas.
This relatively liberal threshold was chosen based on our regionally specific a priori hypotheses, which are also expressed in the acquisition of only a partial volume (covering MTL, midbrain, basal ganglia, and frontal cortex; Supporting Information Fig. S5).
In the case of reward, these are likely to derive from the medial superior frontal gyrus (Supporting Information Table S3), a finding that is compatible with animal studies showing that dorsal portions of PFC are capable of representing specific (and therefore probably absolute) properties of reward [Sakagami and Watanabe, 2007].
GCM indicated a frontal-to-parietal information flow; revealing an MFG→PPC direction of influence.
Granger causality mapping (GCM), a data-driven variant of fMRI EC analysis, revealed a frontal-to-parietal flow of information, from inferior/middle frontal gyrus (MFG) to posterior parietal cortex (PPC).
Information for frontal and video headache school is constantly updated at EHF web site [6].
These regions probably include the parietal and temporal lobes, which are the principal sources of information the frontal lobes act upon, Preuss says.
For example, in visually guided movement, the first stage involves a reciprocally interconnected network of areas in the posterior parietal and caudal frontal cortex, converting sensory information into parameters of potential actions.
This tract connects regions within hemispheres, which is crucial for the integration of information between frontal (including Broca's area) and temporo-parietal regions (including Wernicke's area).
