They are primarily involved in processing and integrating information from the senses and relate to higher mental abilities such as ] and reasoning. In general, areas of the cortex apparently uninvolved in motor or sensory processing are regarded as associaition areas. Association areas function to produce a meaningful perceptual experience of the world, enable us to...
