| 21. | Therefore, neuropsychological tests are sensitive to the dysfunction of orbitofrontal cortex, yet not specific to it.
|
| 22. | These are known as the orbitofrontal circuits, with names indicating the main projection area of each circuit.
|
| 23. | Extraversion was associated with increased volume of medial orbitofrontal cortex, a region involved in processing reward information.
|
| 24. | This conclusion has been replicated in primates, where orbitofrontal damage prevented the extinction of a learned association.
|
| 25. | The main components of the limbic system are the amygdala, orbitofrontal cortex, thalamus and the sensory cortex.
|
| 26. | These results suggest that gustatory neurons in the orbitofrontal cortex may play an important role in food identification and selection.
|
| 27. | The piriform cortex projects to the medial dorsal nucleus of the thalamus, which then projects to the orbitofrontal cortex.
|
| 28. | Orbitofrontal injury also hinders the ability to be risk avoidant, make social judgments, and may cause reflexive aggression.
|
| 29. | She concurrently demonstrated that orbitofrontal activation is persistently lower among persons with bipolar disorder, a trait-like reaction.
|
| 30. | In human studies, testosterone-aggression research has also focused on the role of the orbitofrontal cortex ( OFC ).
