Thought-geography
The Geography of our thoughts
The hemispheres divide into 4 sections, called lobes:
- the twin frontal lobes are associated with reasoning, planning, movement, emotions, and problem solving.
- the twin parietal lobes are involved with movement, orientation, recognition, perception of stimuli, such as taste, texture, temperature, touch, pressure, pain. Reading and arithmetic are also functions of them.
- the twin occipital lobes process all visual data and connect those to images stored in memory. They are also called, the visual cortex twins.
- the twin temporal lobes lie in front of the visual areas and nest under the parietal and frontal lobe twins. As auditory cortices, they handle the perception and recognition of all auditory stimuli, and memories.
