• broca and wernickes research is scientific
• Petersen (et al. 1988)

  Localisation of function - strength:Brain scan evidence showing Wernicke's area as active during a listening task, and Broca's area active during a reading out loud task.
• Tulving (et al. 1994)

  Localisation of function - strength:Brain scan evidence from research into long term memory, shows that episodic and procedural memory are located in different parts of prefrontal cortex.
• Dougherty (et al. 2002)

  Localisation of function - strength:Neurosurgical evidence; 44 OCD patients underwent cingulotomy, and found 32 weeks after that third fully met success criteria of response to surgery, and 14% partially met criteria.
• Phineas Gage (1848)

  Localisation of theory - strength:Case study of man whose left frontal lobe was damaged by an explosive projecting a metre-length metal pole through his left cheek, behind left eye and exited skull at top taking most of his left frontal lobe. Survived, but personality changed; from calm and reserved to quick-tempered and rude. Suggests frontal lobe responsible for regulating mood.
