Overview
The advent of functional neuroimaging methods has given us a unique opportunity to analyze brain correlation to personality and intelligence. Personality characteristics describe distinctive and recurrent patterns of thoughts, feelings, and actions that occur in response to particular situational demands. Modern functional neuroimaging methods map the specific human brain regions associated with some dimensions of personality, e.g. extraversion and neuroticism. A short review of functional and structural neuroimaging paradigms reports brain-intelligence correlation too.
Key words:
brain, personality, intelligence.
