The frontoparietal dome, formed by a fusion of the parietals in the back, has a length of 53.2 millimetres and a maximal thickness of nineteen millimetres.

The infratemporal fenestra ( opening ) behind the eye was narrow and sloped backwards, and the supratemporal fenestra on the top back of the skull was very reduced in size, due to the thickening of the frontoparietal.

Pachycephalosaurs are thus mainly defined by cranial features, such as the flat to domed frontoparietal, the broad and flattened bar along the postorbital and squamosal bones, and the squamosal bones being deep plates on the occiput.

Peterson et al . ( 2013 ) concluded that taken together, the frequency of lesion distribution and the bone structure of frontoparietal domes, lends strong support to the hypothesis that pachycephalosaurids used their unique cranial structures for agonistic behavior.

The skin of head is free; a more or less developed bony arch sometimes slender and partly ligamentous, sometimes very thick and swollen extends on each side from the posterior border of the frontoparietal bones to the squamosals.

In addition to the default mode network, the posterior cingulate cortex is also involved in the dorsal attention network ( a top-down control of visual attention and eye movement ) and the frontoparietal control network ( involved in executive motor control ).

Evidence suggests that there are at least two large-scale neural networks : frontoparietal mirror-neuron areas related to perceptual-motor interactions with others, and cortical midline structures that engage in processing information about the self and others in cognitive and evaluative terms.

In tasks requiring individuals to make predictions when there is some degree of uncertainty about the outcome, there is an increase in activity in area BA8 of the frontomedian cortex as well as a more generalized increase in activity of the mesial prefrontal cortex and the frontoparietal cortex.

These researchers noted that though Williamson and Carr's observation that the supratemporal fenestrae closed with age was generally correct, there was still a high degree of individual variation in the size of these fenestrae, regardless of the size of the frontoparietal, and this feature may therefore have been independent of ontogeny.
