Error recognition and utilization produced by injury to the frontal cortex in man

摘要: Abstract In an earlier study, a patient with frontal lobe damage had been observed and noted to suffer from “an equivocal disturbance of error evaluation.” The terms “evaluation” “utilization” were employed synonymously. Neuropsychological examination the reported here clarifies this “equivocal disturbance”: it became clear that recognition remains intact although utilization is disturbed. Consequently nature syndrome re-evaluated.
