Unfolded view of the cerebellum showing the asymmetric distribution of some cerebellar functions. The right cerebellar hemisphere is associated with language, and the left cerebellar hemisphere, with visuospatial functions. Executive functions, including verbal working memory, are related to both hemispheres. Attention is also a neocerebellar function. The vermis or “limbic cerebellum” is involved in modulating affective behavior. Adapted from Konczak J, Timmann D. The effect of damage to the cerebellum on sensorimotor and cognitive function in children and adolescents. Neurosci Biobehav Rev 2007;31:1101–13 with permission of Elsevier.17
