  1. Frontal lobes - association areas carry on higher intellectual processes for concentrating, planning, complex problem solving, and judging the consequences of behavior. Motor areas control movements of voluntary skeletal muscles.
  2. Parietal lobes - Sensory areas provide sensations of temperature touch, pressure, and pain involving the skin. Association areas function in understanding speech and in using words to express thoughts and feelings.
  3. Temporal lobes - sensory areas are responsible for hearing. Association areas interpret sensory experiences and remember visual scenes, music, and other complex sensory patterns.
  4. Occipital lobes - sensory areas are responsible for vision. Association areas combine visual images with other sensory experiences.
