ANATOMY OF THE EMOTIONAL NEURAL Scientists often talk about the part of the brain used for thinking, namely context. It is sometimes called the neocortex as a distinct part of the brain that deals with emotions, the limbic system, but it is actually the relationship between the two areas that determines a person’s emotional intelligence.
The cortex consists of four lobes (brain hemispheres), and damage to certain lobes will cause certain problems as well. The occult lobe, for example, which is located at the back of the head, is the part of the brain that controls vision. Injury to this area will result in the loss of part of a person’s field of vision, and depending on the size of the injury, damage to the temporal lobes, which are located just behind the ears on either side of the head.
Will cause problems in long term memory. Understanding the cortex and its development helps us appreciate why some children are so good at geometry, while others have a hard time spelling words. Apart from being seen as the thinking part of the brain, context also plays an important role in understanding the cortex and its development help us to appreciate why we have feelings about our own feelings. With the cortex allows us to understand something in depth, analyze why we experience certain feelings, then do something about it. The cortex is the thinking part of the brain, and functions to control emotions through problem solving. Creative language, and other cognitive processes. The limbic system is the emotional part of the brain. This system includes the talanus, which sends messages to the cortex; the hippocampus, which plays a role in memory in perceptual interpretation; and Amindala as the center of emotional control .
According to Lawrence the human brain can be classified into two functions, namely (a) the logical brain, and (b) the emotional brain. The two brains perform different functions in determining our behavior, but they are interdependent. The part of the brain that regulates emotions reacts stronger and faster, under the control of context, especially the frontal lobe gives meaning to the emotional situation it faces before acting. That’s why without an intact frontal lobe, a person looks abnormal, the emotional view of the person is shallow. Indifferent, lethargic, apathetic and so insensitive to others that no one would want to hang out with him.
An important part of the emotional brain is the limbic system. This system regulates emotions and impulses. The part that is included in this system is the hippocampus where emotional learning takes place , where emotional memories are stored and the amygdala as the center for emotional control
