English: The social mind (BA9) receives information from areas of the cortex that enables us to integrate facial expressions, gaze and body language of other agents with our own emotions. The ventral stream delivers information to the material mind (BA47) and the anterior part of Broca’s area (BA45) from cortical areas that enable us to perceive the identity of objects and people. In contrast, the dorsal stream delivers information about the space and time to the abstract mind (BA46-9/46) that is not perceptual in nature (Milner and Goodale, 2008, p. 775). In order to accommodate this perceptually-barren information from the intangible phenomena of space and time, it is proposed that the circuitry within BA46-BA9/46 reorganizes enabling it to embody the necessarily incongruent inputs from the social (BA9), material (BA47) and temporal (BA10) domains of cognition into hypothetical concepts that characterize Piaget’s Formal Operations stage of cognitive development (see: Figure 2). The temporal mind (BA10) engages the psychosocial, practical or abstract domains of cognition in the specific cognitive processes involved in planning. Note that both Broca’s area and BA47 participate in both gestural and verbal communication indicating that the evolution of language is intimately linked to practicality. Note also the interaction (red star) of the material mind (BA47) with the orbital cortex (BA11) that underlies the autonomic arousal (negative reinforcement) which results, specifically, from lying about concrete facts.
