Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Neuroscientists have learned about which brain areas contribute to different cognitive abilities through case studies, including studying patients with brain damage, functional neuroimaging, and electrophysiological recordings. Blood tests and childhood photographs are not relevant for studying brain regions and cognitive abilities. Research in other fields, such as sociology, may provide insights into behavior and societal factors but not necessarily brain regions and cognitive abilities.
