KIN 411 Final Exam Questions and
Answers


What kind of information does the parietal association cortex integrate and receive (4)? - Ans:✔✔-The

parietal association cortex integrates:


Visual;


Somatosensory;


Vestibular and;


Auditory inputs.


True or false: the parietal association cortex sends output to the motor association area - Ans:✔✔-True!


In the brain, which hemisphere is typically the non-dominant side? - Ans:✔✔-The right side is normally

the non-dominant side


The left side is normally the dominant side

Even if left handed


True or false: primary and association areas are represented bilaterally, and perform specialized

functional tasks - Ans:✔✔-True! The primary and association areas are represented bilaterally and are

asymmetrical, performing functional specialization


What are some functions of the dominant hemisphere (5)? - Ans:✔✔-- Language


- **Skilled motor formulation (praxis)**


- Arithmetic: sequential and analytical calculating skills


- Musical ability: sequential and analytical skills in musicians


- Sense of direction: following a set of written directions in sequence


What are some functions of the non-dominant hemisphere (5)? - Ans:✔✔-- Prosody: emotion conveyed

by tone of voice


- **Visual spatial analysis & spatial attention**


- Arithmetic: ability to estimate quantity and to correctly line up columns of numbers on a page


- Musical ability


- Sense of direction: finding one's way by overall sense of spatial awareness

What can occur if a lesion develops on the dominant hemisphere? - Ans:✔✔-Apraxia


What causes apraxia?


What is apraxia? - Ans:✔✔-- Apraxia is caused by damage to motor association areas, or parietal

association cortex of dominant hemisphere.




- Apraxia is the inability to perform complex sequence of movements


- Presented more during skilled movements that require you to use your environment (putting a key in a

lock)


How can you test for apraxia? - Ans:✔✔-Have patients perform skilled tasks, a sequence of tasks, or the

integration of tools (e.g. combing hair, eating with utensils, putting a key in a lock)


True or false: Apraxic patients can still perform basic strength or simple skilled movements - Ans:✔✔-

True! If primary motor cortex is still intact, they should be able to perform basic strength or simple

skilled movements


What area of the brain are visual-spatial analysis and spatial attention attributed to? - Ans:✔✔-They are

attributed to the parietal association cortex and/or the frontal association areas on the non-dominant

hemisphere

Damage to right parietal or frontal association cortex causes what sensory problem? - Ans:✔✔-It causes

an inability to attend to sensory information on the contralateral side


True or false: contralateral neglect is relatively mild or undetectable when a patient has a right

hemisphere lesion - Ans:✔✔-False! Contralateral neglect is relatively mild or undetectable when a

patient has a LEFT hemisphere lesion


If you were to acquire a lesion on the non-dominant side of your brain, what would happen? - Ans:✔✔-

You would lose the ability to attend to sensory information on the left


What are the 4 types of hemi-neglect? - Ans:✔✔-1. Sensory neglect


2. Motor intentional neglect


3. Combinations of motor and sensory neglect


4. Conceptual neglect


What is sensory neglect? - Ans:✔✔-Patients lose the ability to attend to specific sensory information in

the contralateral hemi-space (e.g. visual neglect, auditory neglect, tactile neglect).


What is motor intentional neglect? - Ans:✔✔-Tasks which require prolonged attention will lead to "limb

neglect" on the left side (caused by an inability to stretch their attention to coordinate or maintain

movements)
