Discuss Concepts In the 1930s and 1940s, prefrontal lobotomy, in which neural connections in the frontal lobes of both cerebral hemispheres were severed, was used to treat behavioral conditions such as extreme anxiety and rebellious- ness. Although the procedure calmed patients, it had side effects such as apathy and a seriously disrupted personality. In view of the information presented in this chapter, why do you think the operation had these effects?
The prefrontal lobotomy is a drastic—and largely out-of-practice—procedure used to disconnect that portion of the cerebral cortex from the rest of the frontal lobe and the diencephalon as a psychiatric therapy. Why would this have been thought necessary for someone with a potentially uncontrollable behavior?
