前額葉皮質
前額葉皮質(prefrontal cortex, PFC)位於大腦額葉的前部、運動皮層和前運動皮層的前方,包含布羅德曼分區中的BA8、BA9、BA10、BA11、BA12、BA13、BA14、BA24、BA25、BA32、BA44、BA45、BA46,以及BA47區[1]。
一般認為,前額葉皮質與人生存的慾望以及性格有關[2]。具體來說,前額葉皮質涉及與計劃相關的高層次認知活動、人格表現、作出決定的過程,以及調節社會活動、語言功能的某些方面等行為[3][4],能根據內在目標組織思考與行為[5]。
按照細胞結構學來講,腦前額葉外皮通過第四層大腦皮質而被定義存在。運動前區皮層可以通過幾種方法來分,其中一種把它分為:前額腦區底部和腹內側前額葉皮質;背外側前額葉皮層;前扣帶皮層和後扣帶皮層。
