Boundaries of the dorso-lateral prefrontal cortex

a)for great apes and humans. From left to right: sagittal view, external view, coronal view. Abbreviations: cs: cingulate sulcus; cc: corpsus callosum; frsi: frontal inferior sulcus; frss: frontal superior sulcus; cent.s: central sulcus; prec.s: precentral sulcus; A: anterior: P: posterior; D: dorsal; V: ventral; L: lateral; M: medial.

b) for monkeys. From left to right: sagittal view, external view, coronal view. Abbreviations: cs: cingulate sulcus; cc: corpsus callosum; ps: principal sulcus; as: arcuate sulcus; A: anterior: P: posterior; D: dorsal; V: ventral; L: lateral; M: medial.

Average values of the 3 regions of interest. Each line provides the cumulated volumes of the dorso-lateral prefrontal cortex (DLPFC, green), the frontal pole (FP, grey) and the rest of the brain (ROB, blue), such that the size of each bar represents the whole brain volume. Note: for Homo sapiens, the bar has been truncated, since its value was out of scale with the other species.

Estimated coefficients of socio-ecological variables for the whole brain volume.
