TheFrontal Cortex
aus Behave
the frontal cortex makes you do the harder thing when it’s the right thing to do
(p.48)
Once it has decided, the PFC sends orders via projections to the rest of the frontal cortex, sitting just behind it. Those neurons then talk to the “premotor cortex,” sitting just behind it, which then passes it to the Primary Motor Cortex, which talks to your muscles. And a behavior ensues.
(p.49)
pathological liars have atypically large amounts of white matter in the PFC
(p.63)
von Chapter 6
frontal cortex matures as the last part of the brain. In terms of synapse number, myelination and metabolism.
Fully grown by the mid-twenties. No part is more shaped by Adolescence.
It matures so late, so the frontal cortex can mostly be shaped by Experience (Erfahrung). This enables the brain to overcome genes and be more adaptive towards the environment.
