Auditory, spatial, visual, gustatory, kinesthetic, and olfactory in the outer section of the oval represent neural, sensory, perceptual, and cognitive modules that process external information patterns in these domains. The central executive is composed of the mechanisms that direct attention to one of these domains and result in a conscious, explicit awareness and representation of the corresponding information.
