| Question | Answer |
| Connections of the temporal cortex | Afferent projections from sensory systems. Efferent Projections to the parietal and frontal association regions, limbic system, and basal ganglia. Left and right connected via corpus callosum and anterior commissure |
| Temporal lobe function | Processing auditory input, visual object recognition, long-term storage of information |
| Sensory processes | Identification and categorization of stimuli and cross modal matching. |
| Affective responses | Emotional response is associated with a particular stimulus |
| Spatial navigation | Associated with the hippocampus |
| STS and biological motion | Activation in the STS during perception of biological motion |
| Left temporal lobe | Verbal memory and speech processing. |
| Right temporal lobe | Nonverbal memory, musical processing, facial processing. |
| Symptoms of temporal lobe lesions | Auditory disturbance, disorders of music perception, impaired organization and categorization, inability to use context, memory problems and altered sexual behaviour and personality. |
| Cortical deafness | Absence of neural activity in the auditory regions |
| Impaired auditory processing | Have trouble discriminating speech sounds |
| Wernicke's aphasia | Disturbed recognition of words |
| Temporal lobe damage | Impaired at object recognition, complex pattern recognition |
| Right temporal lobe lesions | Abnormal face perception and biological motion recognition |
| Selective attention to auditory input | Impaired in patients with temporal lobe damage and can be tested with dichotic listening |
| Damage to the left temporal lobe | Impairs recall of visual stimuli in the right visual field |
| Damage to the right temporal lobe | Impairs recall of visual stimuli in both visual fields |
| Left temporal lobe lobectomies | Lead to impairment in the ability to categorize words or pictures of objects |
| Posterior lesions | Lead to a difficulty in recognizing specific word categories |
| Anterograde amnesia | Amnesia for events after bilateral removal of the medial temporal lobes |
| Inferotemporal cortex | Conscious recall of information |
| Left temporal lobe | Verbal memory |
| Right temporal lobe | Impaired recall of nonverbal material. |
| Stimulation of anterior and medial temporal cortex | Produces feelings of fear. |
| Temporal lobe personality | Personality that overemphasizes petty details, pedantic speech, egocentricity, paranoia, prone to aggression. |
