TL;DR: In this article, frontal lobe pathology can explain some of the cognitive deficits observed in patients with Korsakoff's syndrome, but not by other amnesic patients, who exhibited two deficits that were also exhibited by patients with korsakoffs syndrome, i.e., impairment on Wisconsin Card Sorting Test and impairment on the Initiation and Preservation subscale of the Dementia Rating Scale.

TL;DR: This book discusses the development of Spatial Cognition in Adults with a focus on young children and the role of the Parietal Lobe in this process.

TL;DR: Short-latency components of the somatosensory evoked potential were studied in 20 subjects who had median nerve stimulation using knee, forehead, and ear reference recordings and six potentials were identified.

TL;DR: Findings suggest that amnesia can result when several diencephalic structures are damaged conjointly, including the internal medullary lamina, the intralaminar nuclei, the mediodorsal nucleus, and the mammillothalamic tract.

TL;DR: The authors showed that grammatical production is impaired in Alzheimer's patients when grammar is assessed under highly constrained conditions in a film description task, and these grammatical deficits are comparable in some respects to the patterns of lexical impairment observed in this and other studies of AD; specifically, patients do not produce frank lexical or grammatical errors, but they do find it difficult to access the best fit between meaning and form.
