Abstract

Numerous theories discuss the neuropsychological functions of the frontal lobes, most based on some concept of supramodality, and an extensive literature presents the phenomenology and semiology of language and communication deficits after focal brain lesions involving the frontal lobes. Despite this, few attempts have been made to link the clinical phenomenology to a theory. This paper presents (1) a general theory of frontal functions; (2) a brief summary of experimental and anatomical literatures in support of defined frontal functional systems; (3) clinical observations that delineate these functional systems for the specific modalities of language and communication; (4) a review of the available literature supporting the idea of specific modal and supramodal language and communication capacities; (5) hypotheses about the distributed anatomy of these functional systems; and (6) implications for traditional clinical notions of aphasia, particularly in relation to a general theory of frontal lobe functions.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
