Unit 2 – Biological Basis of Behavior
Topic 2.6
What counterargument could be made against the theory that damage to Broca's area exclusively affects speech production?
Broca's area is now understood to control movement rather than speech production.
All brain functions, including speech production, are distributed evenly across all areas of the brain.
There has never been a case where damage to Broca's area did not affect speech production.
Some studies suggest individuals with Broca's area damage may still retain some speech capabilities, indicating other regions may assist in language production.
