This idiot contradicts himself when he says some of the symptoms include "nonspontinuity" then at 0:40 he goes and says that another symptom is impulsivity... Maybe they are not the same thing but doesn't anyone think these asshole psychologist just wanna fuck with your mind with contradictory similarities!?!?!

@RegeMuffin I think they want to help the people that suffer these injuries live with their disabilities. You're right that they are contradictory symptoms, but these are just labels attempting to describe the experience of having a frontal lobe injury. They do not exactly describe what's missing in these people; they overlap and contradict because this the nature of human experience. In one situation a person with these injuries may act with non-spontaneity and in another they may be implusive.

@RegeMuffin i think when he says impulsive hes referring to utilization behavior. it's when the person uses an object in their line of sight in the appropriate way but most likely at an inappropriate time eg turning a hose on when it's raining brushing their teeth at the office. as long as they can see it they'll use it. but i do know what you mean; the guy could have worded the symptoms in a better way.
