2sequnce of process output
primary motor areas → secondary association areas → tertiary areas : prefrontal areas (take initative , plan sequence, feedback)
3information porcessing sequnce
tertiary → primary areas : final output done by corticospinal tract (pyramidal tract)
4cross modal matching
**he ability to recognize objects presented in two different sensory modalities**
5how is cross modal matching possible
when you see an oject in a screen (visual) , you can find next to you just by touch (somatosensory)
6brain components working in cross modal matching
hyppocmapus (in temporal lobe) can memorize all types of information ( visual , auditory and somatosensory)
8the laws of hierarchical structure
complexity increases form primary to tertiary
9law of decreasing specificity
the higher in the hierarchy ( primary →secondary→tertiary), the lower the specificty pf neurons
10cells in law of decreasing specificty
*associative cells enabling information to be processed at a higer level*
11lateralization
*lateralization*: difference in function between LH and RH
12las of increasing lateralization ( one way trafic )
the higher the hierarchy (secondary and tertiary areas ) the more the difference in function between LH and RH
13criticism on one way traffic
1. cortical areas are not serial connected but reciprical (not a simple feed forward system)
2. not one areas recevs input form all other areas
3. each cortical zone can execute more than one operation, also primary cortex
4. cortical operations take place in close cooperation with subcortical areas ( frontospatial systems)
14consequnces of one way traffic
1. behaviour behcomes more flexible
2. behaviour becomes nore complex
3. fist "higher areas " dependent of "lowe areas"
4. later in development "higher areas", control lower areas →inhibition
