Integration the Highest Function of Brain as the Basis of Cognition
Abstract:
Based on the process needs, motivations and emotions, are describing molecular, cellular and systemic mechanisms of goal-direction motivated behavior. Goal-direction behavior is impossible without the orientation in space and forming a cognitive map. This process implements the hippocampus, via the neocortical connections. The hippocampus is linked to the amygdala, which is involved in the implementation of emotional behavior and organizing emotionally intense cognitive map or context of the environment.

Language formation and comprehension take place in the dominant hemisphere. The dominant hemisphere is responsible for understanding the meaning of spoken, written, or sign language, as well as the ability to communicate. For most people, the left hemisphere is the dominant one. The right hemisphere, then, gives tone and emotional context to the...
