Regarding the frontal lobe and impaired judgement. Is there anyone out there that can explain how the frontal lobe is affected by Bipolar Disorder? Impaired judgement, namely risk taking behaviors, and excessive spending are common with bipolar disorder. Apparently these symptoms are governed by the frontal lobe. My question is why? Why and how is this portion of the brain affected by the disorder?

SM, I just read a webpage that shows some significant correlations between right frontal damage and people going into manias. The page has a lot of useful information about the frontal lobe. http://brainmind.com/RightFrontalLobe.html -R.Yeager
Can we get citations for the research findings described? WU03 22:13, 10 September 2006 (UTC)
The "brain place" link no longer exists
This article was started by User:SoCal and the next contributor was User:Emperorbma, both of whom used American English. According to the Wikipedia Manual of Style an article should be uniform in spelling. Since both "neuron" (American) is used instead of "neurone" (British) and "fiber" (American) used instead of "fibre" (British) in this article, User:64.107.141.20 was correct in changing the spelling from "behaviour" (British) to "behavior" (American). semiconscious ( talk · home) 23:59, 28 September 2005 (UTC)
We could say that the neutrality of this article is indeed in question. In the beginning of the article, it states that frontal lobes are the regions occupying the front of hemispheres, hemisphere implying to halves. the article seems to only describe the function of the left frontal obe, the one that controls logic, organization, impulse control and other linear tasks as such, but he forgets to include the the right frontal lobe, which is less used in modern society. The right frontal lobe is used for artistic expression, creativity in all forms, and holistic thinking. If there is an expert out there to add that in, the article would be more accurate. Perhaps I could be wrong, since the title of the article is Frontal Lobe. If that is the case, then two articles should be made for the left and right frontal lobes. It isn't a neccesity, but this is wikipedia, an encyclopedia set up for the cause of knowledge. The human brain is the most crucial tool for the purpose of wikipedia, knowledge, that is, so shouldn't we educate more people about it? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 71.149.167.113 ( talk • contribs)
How does the frontal lobe store the encoded message in the temporal lobe? Are synapes created that trigger these memories or what?
This statement is false. MRI's indicate that multiple areas of the brain are involved in any conscious thought, not just the frontal lobe. So until a credible link can be provided, that statement is being removed.
What is the pertinence of the introductory paragraph to the "function" section of the article? What do the parts of the brain discussed in the paragraph have to do with the "frontal lobes"?

I was 22. I don't understand how this injury that I had, isn't a disability? My brain wasn't even fully developed. Carolynsouleyrette22 ( talk) 20:18, 9 May 2017 (UTC)
Why does this page have a "__NOTOC__" tag? It seems like it could use one, αЯβιτЯαЯιŁΨθ ( talk) 01:31, 26 September 2008 (UTC)
The following sentence in the intro needs to be translated into English:
"It is separated from the parietal lobe by the post-central gyrus primary motor cortex, which controls voluntary movements of specific body parts associated with the precentral gyrus posteriorly , inferiorly by lateral sulcus[slyvian] which separates it from the temporal lobe ,superiorly by the superior margin of the hemisphere and anteriorly by the frontal pole."
Is there someone who speaks Latin who can translate?-- 109.255.84.223 ( talk) 13:30, 2 June 2010 (UTC) there is really no info get rid of the damn page got it. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 137.87.66.12 ( talk) 17:46, 19 July 2011 (UTC)
The rotating diagram of the brain is a great idea, but our perceptual system is designed to pay attention to movement, so the rotation is a constant source of distraction when reading the article text. For this reason, the user should be able to stop the rotation. This observation applies to animation inserts in all articles, including the articles on the four cerebral lobes: frontal, parietal, occipital, and temporal.

In the opening paragraph "and to slightly increased risk for schizophrenia" Schizophrenia is a diagnosis based on someones behaviour , behaviour is not a disease. People make choices. Choices come from freewill, which is the frontal brain.
