76 Deja Review: <strong>Behavioral</strong> <strong>Science</strong><br />

In which direction does the PNS carry<br />

motor and sensory information<br />

to the CNS?<br />

What are the components of the<br />

autonomic nervous system?<br />

Motor information: away from the CNS<br />

Sensory information: to the CNS<br />

Sensory neurons and motor neurons<br />

that run between the CNS (especially<br />

the hypothalamus and medulla oblongata)<br />

and various internal organs.<br />

BRAIN LESIONS<br />

What will be the neuropsychiatric<br />

consequences of a frontal lobe lesion?<br />

What will be the neuropsychiatric<br />

consequences of a parietal lobe lesion?<br />

What will be the neuropsychiatric<br />

consequences of a temporal lobe lesion?<br />

What will be the neuropsychiatric<br />

consequences of a hippocampus lesion?<br />

What will be the neuropsychiatric<br />

consequences of an amygdala lesion?<br />

What will be the neuropsychiatric<br />

consequences of a reticular system<br />

lesion?<br />

What will be the neuropsychiatric<br />

consequences of a basal ganglia lesion?<br />

What will be the neuropsychiatric<br />

consequences of a hypothalamus<br />

lesion of the ventromedial nucleus?<br />

Deficits in concentration, judgment,<br />

motivation, and orientation<br />

Disinhibition<br />

Personality and emotional changes<br />

Right parietal lobe → (contralateral<br />

neglect) result in neglecting part of the<br />

body or space<br />

Left parietal lobe → verbal deficits<br />

Hallucinations<br />

Memory deficits<br />

Personality changes<br />

Bilateral damage to hippocampus leads<br />

to massive anterograde and some<br />

retrograde amnesia.<br />

Unilateral damage of hippocampus<br />

leads to memory storage and retrieval<br />

problems.<br />

Kluver-Bucy syndrome → uninhibited<br />

behavior, hyperorality, hypersexuality<br />

Sleep-wake cycle changes<br />

Tremor or other involuntary movements<br />

as seen in Parkinson or Huntington<br />

diseases<br />

Decreased satiety → leads to obesity
