What does the frontal lobe control?

The frontal lobe controls emotions, problem solving skills, memory, language, social behavior, sexual behavior and overall judgement. It is the main portion of the brain that allows an individual to communicate and have a personality.

The frontal lobe is also responsible for carrying out higher mental processes. This portion of the brain allows individuals to think, make decisions and plan for the future. The frontal lobe is utilized every day and is larger in humans than it is in any other organism. It is located in the front of the brain and can be divided into a left and a right hemisphere.
