心理智商和怨恨之间的多种关系的整合对更高水平的认知至关重要。在演绎和归纳推理任务中,前额叶损伤患者表现出选择性和灾难性的缺陷II?关系的整合,而前颞叶损伤的患者,总体智商上升,但前额叶皮质完整,表现出正常的关系整合。相比之下,前额叶患者在情景记忆和语义知识测试中的表现都比颞叶患者更准确。这些双重分离表明,关系的整合是认知复杂性的一个特定来源,而完整的前额叶皮质对此至关重要。关系的整合可能是连接不同能力的基本共同因素,这些能力依赖于前额叶功能,如计划、解决问题和流动智力。
The integration of multiple relations between mental iq,resentations is critical for higher level cognition. For both deductive and inductive-reasoning tasks, patients with prefrontal damage exhibited a selective and catastrophic deficit ii? the integration of relations, whereas patients with anterior temporal lobe damage, marched for overall IQ but with intact prefrontal cortex, exhibited normal relational integration. In contrast, prefrontal patients performed more accurately than temporal patients on tests of both episodic memory and semantic knowledge. These double dissociations suggest that integration of relations is a specific source of cognitive complexity for which intact prefrontal cortex is essential. The integration of relations may be the fundamental common factor linking the diverse abilities that depend on prefrontal function, such as planning, problem solving, and fluid intelligence.
