Question

Praveen is attempting the play cards (of different colours) sorting task. He starts off sorting the cards according to their colours, but when the experimenter changes the sorting criterion, Praveen starts sorting the cards instead according to the shapes on the cards. Praveen fails to detect this shift in strategy, so he continues to sort the cards by colour. Praveen has most likely suffered damage to which of the following region?

• A. Partial lobe
• B. Frontal lobe
• C. Occipital lobe
• D. Temporal lobe

Answer 1

The correct option is B Frontal lobe

The frontal lobe is one of the most important parts of the brain. Injury to frontal lobe causes dementia and other severe diseases like Alzheimer's disease. It is important for frontal lobe to function properly for an individual to make good choices and recognize consequences.

So, option B is the correct answer.
