after the accident, phineas gage had changed quite a lot. he was once a strong, smart, businessman, but after the accident, he was "impatient of restraint or advice". he started having intense seizures then died due to them.

gage's accident changed the understanding of the brain dramatically. scientists learned that the brain did not only control language and movement, but also that it controls all of our thoughts and you can still live even with damage to the frontal lobe

after the accident, phineas gage had changed a good amount. he used to be a "strong and active" man. he was well liked with the men that he worked with. when the medal rod went through his face, many things changed, physically and mentally. he became very impatient, and no longer wanted to follow up with plans. he also began to stop caring about his fellow workers and became immature. he also had sever seizures that led to his death. Years later, the physician who treated gage discovered that damage to the frontal lobe affects your behavior.

1. After the accident Phineas Gage became fitful toward others.  He had the intelligence of a child but the animal passions of a strong man.  His body and mind changed in many ways.  He would often change his employment because he was always finding something that didn't fit him after his seizure.

2. His accident changed scientist's understanding by showing some new things.  At first they believed the brain only controlled language and movement, but the suggestion that the brain functioned to process emotions and social behavior was new.

After the awful accident of Phineas Gage, he changed quite a bit. He used to be really into his friends and strong and motivated, after the accident he showed no interest in many things including his friends and he couldn't get his job back after the accident, he also was experiencing seizures. He was "grossly profane" and the mind of a child with animal passions of a strong man.

Gage's accident changed scientists' understanding

# data[].attributes.body
Phineas Gage used to be a strong and active man that was looked at as a leader, and he had a lot of motivation and got stuff done. After his accident, he had seizures and his peers noticed changes in him. They said, ‘The balance between his intellectual faculties and animal propensities seems to have been destroyed’. Phineas's behavior was a huge difference and disappointment to his peers. He became impatient and stubborn, had no motivation, and the intellectual abilities of a child. Obviously the accident had a huge impact on Gage as a person.

Gage's accident was a tragedy, however, scientists were able to use Gage as a study model for the brain and how it works. Before his accident, the brain was thought to just be housing what controls our thoughts and our movements, but through this study scientists discovered that the brain actually contributes to our personality and our emotions as well. This study has shown us that the brain has many more functions and is far more valuable than anyone thought it even was before.

After the accident Phineas Gage had a completely different personality than he previously had. Before the accident he was very outgoing and involved with his friends. He was motivated to do his work. He had not had any issues before the accident. Gage was popular among most people. After the accident, he became more anti-social and less outgoing. He did not follow through with plans. He was impatient. Aside from this, he also suffered from seizures that eventually killed him.

The tampering iron entered his head and went through the frontal lobes. His personality completely changed after this. This helped scientists discover that the frontal lobes are connected with personality.

Following the accident, Phineas's behavior changed dramatically. While he was still able to talk and hear and do basic motor functions, The incident had a personality altering effect.  As  it is shown and depicted in the article, we see how he became less of a gentleman and that he had become more profain. He became more restrained to advice meaning that he became less teachable than before. It says that his fellows didn't like him as much after because the incident negatively affected his personality. He was described to be childish in the animal constraints of a man's body. Phineas Gage's rare occurrence promoted so much research and it dramatically helped the study of the brain and how awesome it is. The brain is pretty dope all in all.

# data[].attributes.body
Gages accident changed his personality and his thinking ability's. Before the accident he was a well balanced man. He was a liked be his employees and most people thought highly of him. But After the accident he is described as animal like in his desires. He had a hard time with conflicting opinions of others, and developed more attachments to animals.
The fact that Gage was able to survive and communicate after the accident changed the way scientists believed the brain worked. Before they thought that the brain had two functions. Langue and movement. But because he was able to speak with a missing piece and the fact that his personality was changed, made scientists question what the brain actually did.

After the accident, Phineas' friends and family said that he was "no longer gage". Gage wasn't able to retain the same job so he ended up becoming a stagecoach driver. The accident changed many things about Phineas. He conceived a fondness for animals and children, he only talked about the good things about his job, and he kept changing his job to things that didn't suit him. After the accident he ended up acting more like a kid than an adult.

# data[].attributes.body
After the accident, Phinease had a major change in his personality and really became a completely different person. His friends and family said that he was no longer Gage. They believed his personality change was due  to damage to the frontal region of the brain. Before the accident scientists only thought the brain controlled the language and movement, but after the accident they found out so much more. They found out the brain also processes emotions and social behavior. This explains why people who have major brain damage also have a change in their personality.

# data[].attributes.body
Before Phineas Gage's accident, he had a very well-balanced mind. He also was very strong and active, and had great character energy. After his accident, he was very fitful and profane and he didn't really show interest in his friends. He acted like a child, but he also had the passions of a string of a man. He was also very flakey and he didn't follow through with his plans, he also was very impatient. He also developed a strange fondness of animals and children and especially horses. He also had many seizures that he did not have before. Phineas Gage's accident changes scientists' understanding in the sense that they didn't know that the frontal portion of your brain controls your behavior. They also found that language wasn't the only thing that the frontal lobe controlled.

# data[].attributes.body
After the accident, Phineas Gage started having seizures and those were the ultimate cause of his death, but he mainly changed because his personality was so vastly different. He had previously been a strong minded, well-liked, and very willing to get the job done. After the accident though, he became very short tempered, impatient, and not willing to actually do his job and work with his mates.                                                                    His accident has changed the way scientists understand the brain because before-hand, everybody thought that the brain just did two simple tasks, control movement, and control speech. After though, scientists began to see that the brain did so much more and you could lose a portion of the brain and still be alive and live a semi-healthy life

# data[].attributes.body
After his accident, Phineas Gage became weak for a short amount of time, but recovered. Physically, he also had seizures that got worse over time (and eventually killed him). Before, he was very efficient and strong. Gage's behavior changed significantly as well. Instead of being proactive on all of his plans and tasks, he ended up stopping them almost as soon as he started them. His behavior and moods started to change quickly and often. He also became profane and disrespectful, whereas before he was friendly.

Gage's accident obviously led to bad changes for him, but brought about a better understanding of the brain, too. Scientists figured out that the brain had many different parts that each were in charge of different things.

before the accident Phinease gage was a strong person and he was liked by all his employees. After  he acted like a diffrent  person he could still talk but his personality changed in many ways and he became weak he wasnt strong like he used to be. He could not get his job back. so instead he traveld. Also after the aciddent he tarted having many seizures. phinease started acting like a child and had no intrest in any of his friends and started not going through with his plans. All in all the change in him became a huge differnce he became very stuborn and imaptient.

The effects on Phineas Gage's behavior post accident  was his  inability to suppress primitive thinking, child like with planning and decisions, and overall impatient. Comparatively Phineas was a well balanced individual that was able to cope with society exceedingly well before the accident. After the accident though, it could be noticed that he acted out more to what would be considered as immature thinking and overall became unreliable. Another important behavior that should be noticed would be his obsession with his tampering rod which he kept with him throughout his entire life suggesting child like thinking. This accident then gave way to the knowledge on the brain and what function it proposes. The accident provided the knowledge that personality and functions pertaining to this were stemming from the brains function. According to the observation of his abrupt change from a well balanced worker, to a volatile child like person. The location of the injury was also helpful for scientist later on, since it gave information on what type of functions those lobes contributed.

Phineas changed in many different ways. His friends and co-workers said that he was no long Gage. He came to grow a great fondness for pets, souvenirs, especially children, horses and dogs. These were only exceeded by his beloved tamping iron. which in turn became his constant companion for the rest of his life. After his accident according to Harlow he became very fitful and grossly profane. He was in the end a vastly different person. Doctors became very interested in how he still had most of his motor functions but did not exhibit any symptoms that would have caused him and harm. At least right away. They have used his skull as a gateway to learn new information. They learned that the rod had indefinitely struck both regions of his frontal lobe which is also what controls social behavior. Scientists today also see may different accidents from motor vehicle accidents to gun violence and also major falls that cause the same kinda damage as phineas had done to his brain. These people also show similar experiences as Phineas exhibited.

After the accident Phineas Gage changed in many ways. He couldn't get his job back after the accident. His emotions were all over the place. After a while he decided to go back to his family and he was very weak and his emotions were all over the place. He started having seizures and was having epileptic outbreaks frequently. He survived for about eleven and a half years after the accident. He had a very hard time with opinions of others and many people described him as an animal. He just became such an unstable person in his mental and physical abilities.                                        Phineas Gage's accident made scientist's realize that this was a very rare occurrence. They were baffled by the fact that he lost the chunk of his brain and was still living a somewhat healthy life. They had discovered that the rod hit the 2 sides of his frontal lobe which effects behavior. They have used his skull as a beginning point to start looking at what parts of the brain we really use

Phineas Gage had previously been a normal and agreeable person with usual habits. He was liked by many and had an energetic, strong, and passionate temperament. Following the accident, his well-balanced traits and behaviors ceased to exist as he became a short-tempered and impulsive person. He became a stubborn, inconsistent, and childishly illogical, as well as someone who couldn't be reasoned with.
Because of his complete emotional and temperamental turnaround, scientists began to progress in their understanding of the function and structure of the brain. Damage to Phineas's frontal lobe altered his emotional responses and personality, changing scientists' previous idea that language and movement were the only functions of the brain. For the first time, they also began to realize that specific parts of the brain were responsible for certain tasks, such as movement and emotional responses. This explains the link between frontal lobe damage and the loss of impulse control and the reduced ability to make logical decisions.

Phineas Gage seemed to be a completely different type of person after the accident. Before his ordeal he was very strong, active, smart, and balanced. After the accident however he was impatient, profane, and fitful. He acted more childish than he previously had.

Phineas Gage's accident totally changed the psychology game. Before his accident people thought that the brain only really controlled two things, movement and language. However, after his injuries people began to see that his personality and actions as well as emotions totally changed. So they realized that without this one part of his brain he was still able to function but he did so differently then before.

After the accident Phineas Gage went from being a very smart, temperate, active individual to being very fitful, impatient, constantly unsure about his future, and intellectually like a child. After the accident he could not keep a job especially after his first seizure. A physician who treated Gage connected the behavioral changes to the damaged front region of his brain. During this time it was assumed that the brain controlled language and movement, but the idea the the brain controlled social behavior and processed emotions was a whole new idea. In the 90's scientists used their improved understanding of how the brain functions, computer modeling techniques, and new data from Gage's skull. With this information they found that his accident had damaged both hemispheres of his frontal lobe, which is what controls your social behavior.

After the accident Phineas Gage had changed dramatically mentally more than physically he looked the same on the outside but he had some damage to the brain. Before the accident he was a smart temeperate strong and energetic man. After the accident he was  less energetic and more angry than before. Phineas started too have seizures that eventually kiled him. He had the inability to suppress primitive thinking childlike with planning and decisions. Phineas accident contributed to the understanding of the brain by learning that the brain was not just for language and movement. Scientists learned that there is much more to the brain than just two things.

After his accident, Phineas changed from a well balanced worker and a smart man to a very angry and emotional. They described Phineas as becoming: 'Fitful', ‘irreverent’, grossly profane, and
‘Impatient of restraint or advice’ that conflicted with his desires. After the accident he also became weak and had to take a ton of time to recover. No other jobs would hire him and his friends said that he was no longer Gage.                           Before his accident scientists thought the brain lacked localized functions but after that happened they realized the brain processes information. They also thought that the brain just Controlled movement and speech but after his accident they learned it had many more important functions.

After the pole went through his head, Gage was no longer able to work as a railroad attendant. His behavior was childish and stand offish and he was impatient.  Before the accident, Gage was well balance and very liked.  This accident showed scientists that the brain didnt only control movement and language. After the accident obvious signs of behavior changes appeared and emotional changes. Scientists realized that if you lose a piece of the brain you can still fully function.

Before his accident, Phineas Gage was a mentally balanced man, a good worker, and a favorite among his colleagues. After the accident, however, he had little self control, displaying irritability and a tendency to say whatever came into his head with little thought for the social repercussions. As a result, maintaining a job and getting along with others became difficult for him. Phineas also became much more childish; he entertained children with fanciful stories and became incredibly fond of pets and souvenirs.
Phineas Gage's accident completely changed the way that scientists understood the brain. Before Phineas's accident, scientists believed that the brain was only responsible for controlling language skills and movement. However, Phineas Gage's personality changes revealed that the brain played a major role in emotions, personality, and social behavior. As a result, Gage's accident opened up a whole new field of study for scientists and a wide range of new possibilities to research.

After the accident, Phineas Gage was not able to regain his job back, so instead he decided to travel and exhibit himself as an attraction at a museum in New York. He was was traumatically effected by by the accident because it altered his face, he wasn't able to see out of his eye and it also altered his mind. His relationships were difficult to keep because of the strike of anger caused by the altered problems of his brain. Also his moods and behaviors began to change without explanation.
Because of Gage's accident scientists were able to obtain more knowledge about the human brain. And Phineas's brain was used as a model for that. Scientists began to question what the brain actually did because he was still able to speak and communicate with people.

After the tamping rod went through his skull and brain, Gage changed dramatically after the incident. Some of these changes included becoming irritable, profane, impatient, acquiring animal like tendencies, and a childlike intelligence, and became unable to reason with things that conflicted with his desires.
Gage was able to significantly impact the way the brain was understood. Before his accident it was believed that the brain only controlled physical aspects such as language and movement. After this the theory changed due to the fact that Gage was able to move, walk, and talk after losing/sustaining extreme damage to his brain. Seeing this new information scientists learned that as well as control physical functions, the brain could also process emotions and social situations. They also, in part, came to learn that different parts of the brain had different functions.

According to the article, Phineas changed on both a physical and mental level after his event. Physical, being of course the damage to his face as seen in the picture in the article. But his ability to think and process life as he was once able to, changed drastically as well. He became fitful, irreverent, and grossly profane. and felt as if he was a child stuck in a mans body, with the animal passions of a strong man all wrapped in to one little messed up bundle. He also became very impatient and rejected the advice of others. Even his friends stated in this article that when he came home after his event he was no longer the man they once knew. Now what his accident changed about how we as a race view the how the brain is this, we once believed that the brain only existed for the main function of letting us walk, talk, and feel emotions and all of the brain worked to make this task possible for us. But after this incident we were able to figure out that maybe the brain had more parts and was able to control many different aspects of how we work in different parts of the brain.

After the accident, Phineas Gage was pretty much the same physically, however he changed dramatically emotionally and mentally. Before his accident, he was able to work as a foreman of a railway construction gang, but, after the incident he couldn't get his job back because he was said to not have the balance between his intellectual faculties and animal propensities. He also changed by after the accident becoming fit full, Impatient, and even had a intellect of a child. This was such a big change because before the incident, he was known to be strong and active, well liked, and a well balanced mind. Many of the people he worked with and friends said that he was never the same person.

Phinease Gage's accident led to changes in scientific understanding of the brain in many ways. Scientists before only thought that the brain was responsible for the language and movement control, but now after examining Gage, they realized that it was also responsible for emotional and social behaviors. They also learned that people could live while still missing part of their brain.

Phineas was severally affected after his accident. Physically he was "ok" but psychologically he was not the same person. He had simple motor functions still, was physically able bodied but his intellect was that of a child's. He became quick to anger, and had little self control. Before the accident, he was a balanced person, had a good work ethic, and was well liked. After, many people said he was not the same person.
Gage's accident opened a new door to neuroscience. Scientists now had a more comprehensive understanding of how the brain work. Many used to believe that the brain did not due all that much (thanks to the burning of The Library of Alexandria which destroyed much of our knowledge of neuroscience 2000 years ago) but now we were able to ascertain the functions of the individual parts of the brain. His death was ultimately for the better of science and society.

Phineas Gages behavior after the accident changed dramatically. After three months of recovery, he was well enough to return back to his parents farm. Then, he worked for many years as a stagecoach. After that, he returned back to his family in san francisco with an illness. He began having seizures and eventually died from one. He lived for 11 and a half years after the accident. Twenty years after the accident, the physician who treated him studied more of the frontal region of the brain. At the time, the brain was thought to only control the language and movement of the body, but that the functioned to process the emotions and social behavior, and how it processes information. the accident opened up a whole new understanding of the way the brain functions.

Phineas was so changed by his accident that people who were closest to him described him as 'no longer Gage'. Gage's brain experienced such traumatic damage in such a precise manner. He became irreverent,his intellect which was once shrewd and business like became that of a childs. His iron will and ability to execute and fully complete plans complete dissapeared as his interests went all over the place and were quickly abandoned. He could not maintain a job and everyone noticed the intense and dramatic metamorphosis his personality and behavior went through after the accident. He was basically the polar opposite of his old self.

Gage's accident changed the way that scientist perceived the brain by illustrating that the brain wasnt just this blobby thing that was housed in our skulls. It did more than just control language and movement,Gages accident and subsequent personality change exhibited that the brain also controlled emotions and social behavior. At the time though this was not accepted because they believed that brain lacked the localized functioning. Gages accident shed an interesting light on how the brain works though. This helped scientist later on to correlate damages in the frontal to the frontal lobe to dramatic changes in peoples behavior and decision making.

1. The main thing that changed about Phineas Gage was his personality. Before the event he was well respected, well mannered, and strong willed. After the event however, he lost a lot of those features, he became impatient, easy to anger, and so called "a child intellectually". The other main change in his life was the fact that he started having seizures which got worse and worse over the years, eventually leading to his death.

2. The accident changed our understanding of the brain because it was the first incident in which scientists realized that the brain controlled more than just language and movement. The event proved that the brain had control over emotions and social behavior as well, which was completely new at the time. The other thing that it brought to light is that the brain had localized functions. At the time scientists thought that the entire brain was responsible for the things it did, whereas, this accident showed that different areas of the brain must house different functions, being that he was still able to move and talk even though a portion of his brain was missing.

1. After the accident, Phineas became more impatient and acted like a child. He was stubborn and was “grossly profane”. His moods and behavior changed quickly without explanation. He didn't respect the people he worked with as much or listen to their opinions. He jumped between jobs a lot and struggled to find one that suited him.
2. His accident also changed scientists' understanding of the brain. Before, they thought the brain only controlled language and movement. They then realized that it could also process emotions and social behavior. They learned that the brain had different areas of the brain that served different functions instead of the entire brain having a few of the same functions.

Phineas Gage had pretty much the same basic functions after the accident, physically, his mental and emotional ways were changed.  At the time before the accident, he was a temperate man he turned into a fitful and impatient person who his friends didn't know as the same Phineas. His change in behavior eventually led to the loss of his original job and he couldn’t keep a job very well at all after. Scientists learned learned from the accident that the brain had many different functions and importance than thought at the time. Also, it suggested that the brain didn't just control speech and movement, but social behavior and emotions. Gage's physician after studying Gage, concluded that the damage to his frontal lobe was responsible for these changes in behavior and emotions. Scientists have gained way more knowledge about how the brain processes information because of Gage. Doctors found that the accident damaged both regions of the frontal lobe, which are the parts of the brain that influence behavior in social environments. People today with damage to those regions of the brain, like Phineas Gage, often have dramatic changes in their emotional and decision-making abilities.

Phineas was affected tramatically from his accident besides physically altering parts of his face and head his mind was also altered. It in a way de-evolving him making him more childlike and impatient he was a new man that drove away his friends and family. Quick to anger he made relationships with him difficult. He was dumbed down and pulled back to more of a child like behavior. Later on his health declined to the point of seizures and eventually death but overall recovered almost completely in a couple years after the accident. The brain trauma changed his interests and views on the world.

Before Gage's accident scientists believed the brain was made of only to parts but based off that theory Gages odds of survival we minimal to none. Perplexed, the scientists started brainstorming and creating new theories to how he could survive. The beginning of this study helped scientists to find new cures for diseases and overall helped evolve the known science.

After the accident, Phineas Gage became much more susceptible to other health issues, for a time he lived with his mother due to a “weakened state” and it took him several months to recover.  Towards the end of his life Gage began experiencing seizures that became extremely severe and led to his death.  Along with the physiological effects, it also had an effect on his personality and interests.  He became extremely fond of pets and animals, and for a time he took the rod that impaled him everywhere he went.  His friends claimed he “was no longer Phineas” due to his negative behavioral changes including profanity, lack of restraint, and indifference to his friends.
Due to scientists understanding of what happened to Phineas Gage, they now know that the brain controls not only language and movement, but also emotions and social behavior.  Also, scientists also now that the brain has localized functions.

1. Phineas was unable to regain his previous job so he toured around major cities presenting his story to people.  Phineas became a stagecoach after his accident and ended up moving to Chile to set up a stagecoach line there.  When Phineas came home he had seizures and other problems including not caring for his friends and family as much.  He acted more childish and found a love for animals like dogs, horses and cats.  Phineas could not settle with a job and felt out of place.

2.Phineas having his accident opened up an interest in scientists curiosity of what the brain really controls and does.  People always assumed the brain lacked localized functions until after his accident.  Phineas Gage’s condition helped scientists better understand how the brain controls our behavior and emotions.

1.) Cage became fitful, disrespectful, developed unpredictable mood swings, exhibited child like behaviors, and became selfish and impatient. He had a different personality, and had lost his ability to be mature. Cage also developed  a fondness for animals, children, and his metal rod. He developed seizures and continued to increase in severity.
2.) Cage's accident gave scientists an idea on what parts of the brain governed behavior and how the brain processes information. With Cage's accident, they found that the metal rod damaged the parts of the brain influences social behavior.

2. Gage's accident opened a whole new understanding of the brain for the scientific community by giving us incite to how the brain is sectioned into different areas for different functions. The incident also showed that the brain did not just control our movement and language abilities but also all of the other human body and personality functions we have

Phineas Gage after the accident was said to have changed his behavior so greatly that his friends and acquaintances said he was "no longer Gage".  Even though he was still able to function, the damage to his brain caused profound psychological effects.  Harlow said, "the balance between his intellectual faculties and animal propensities seems to have been destroyed".  The psychological toll taken had immensely changed who Phineas Gage was and who he was yet to be.  Gage began to have epileptic episodes which overtime occurred more often and increased more severely.  After eleven and a half years the seizures eventually killed him on May 21,1860.

Prior to Phineas Gage's accident, scientists believed that the brain controlled language and movement only.  After the accident when Gage had motor skills and language functions, physicians realized the brain controlled other aspects of human function as well. Unknowingly, Phineas Gage contributed to our understanding of how the brain processes information. Through research on Gage physicians discovered that the accident had impaired Gage's social behavior, thus discovering that the brain controls social behavior as well

After having a pole shot through his head and some how surviving Phineas Gages life changed very much. He lost his job and became an attraction at a museum in New York and visited major cities in New England to lecture and exhibit himself. Phineas became fitful and disrespectful and showed behaviors of a child but had the passions of a strong man. After Phineas was not able to go back to his job he ended up moving to Chile where nobody would know about him or his condition and he became a stagecoach driver for many years. When he decided to return to his family many years later he was not the same and arrived with some sort of illness an weakened condition

1.) After the accident, Phineas Gage's behavior changed drastically. Before the incident, his friends described him as being "strong and active" with an "iron will".  After the accident however, his employer described Phineas as a being whose intellectual level represented the one of a child's but inside of an adult's body with the passions of a man. Also, Phineas was fitful, impatient, unfocused, and seemed to have lost his drive.
2.) Phineas Gage's accident served as a revolution in the medical field. At the time, the brain was thought to only control language and movement. The idea that the brain functioned to process emotions and social behavior was new. Gage's incident proved the belief that the brain lacked localized functions was a myth. Today, scientists use Phineas's skull, along with computer modeling techniques and new data, to help them better understand the effects an injury to to the frontal lobe has on an individual's social behavior, their emotions, and their ability to make decisions.

# data[].attributes.body
The injury that Phineas Gage received to his brain greatly affected his personality. Previously known as a very well tempered, focused man, he was widely liked by his peers, however after the accident, his colleagues reported that he was not the same person anymore. He became irritable, impatient, child-like, and lacked concentration. He was driven by desire, urges and fantasies.  He became very fond of children and animals. He could not hold down a job because he couldn't focus long enough to do anything properly. He also became oddly attached to the tamping iron that had injured him, and kept it with him for the remainder of his life.

The case of Phineas Gage helped to enlighten scientists as to which part of the brain controls which functions. It provided them with evidence that the brain controls emotions and social behavior. The rod injured both frontal hemispheres of his brain and so they were able to learn that this is the portion of the brain that influences social behavior.

1. Phineas Gage's personality changed in several ways. He became more fitful and selfish along with impatient and gave up on a future. Also, he started to act like a child mentally. He collected new souvenirs and found a new love for pets and animals. Gage had a hard time holding on to a job and planning for something more to happen in his life. Gage developed epilepsy which caused an obstical in daily life and performing such tasks in a work area.He lost all passion for the things he loved before the accident.
2. Phineas gave a better understanding on the brain functions. This accident allowed scientist to understand that the brain controls emotions and thought processes as well. The injury helped scientist map different parts of the brain and understand what parts can be taken out and still survive.

1. Phineas Gage after the accident was never the same. Gage began to show child like behaviors. Gage was impatient, had fits, and when things didn't go they way he wanted he would get very angry. He also now showed interest in children and pets. His friends went on to say that he was  " no longer Gage".
2. Sometime after Phineas Gage's accident scientist's concluded when there is damage to the frontal lobe it causes a change in a person's behavior. This idea had never been thought until this accident. Scientist's now knew that the brain also controlled emotions and social behavior. Giving the knew theory of how the brain processes information. Now scientist's with the new technology were able to use Gage's skull as a 3D model, to better understand accidents that have to due with the frontal lobe of the brain.

After his accident his life changed in many ways. He was unable to return to his job due to how he had changed mentally. He was fitful, impatient of restraint or advice, pertinaciously obstinate, and a child intellectually with the animal passion of a strong man. This changed scientist understanding of the brain because they thought that the brain was only in charge of language and  movement and they thought he would die and Phineas helped them understand that it controls more than that.

After the Accident, Phineas's personality changed very drastically.  He become much more animalistic. also, he became very angry and impatient with a childlike intellectual level.  He was not able to fit in to any job and  he began to love animals and children very much. He also developed an attachment to the pole that went through his brain. he eventually moved to chile and worked as a stagecoach driver and then died.

Gage's Accident changed scientists' understanding of the brain quite drastically. Before his accident, people assumed that the brain lacked localized functions. After it happened however, not only did scientists realize that brain processes were localized, but they also discovered that the brain processes social behavior and emotion. Now scientists know that the frontal lobe effects social behavior and people's personalities change if they damage this part of the brain

Phineas Gage lost his previous job and he became an attraction at a museum and worked at a stable coach line for years later. After the injury he sustained many psychological injuries. His behavior changed from being a kind gentleman who is very well balanced to a brash decision maker who used profanity commonly. His friends were quoted as saying that he was no longer himself.

Phineas Gage's accident propelled the studies toward the brain forward, resulting in many discoveries. Scientists did not know that the brain housed the functions of emotions and behavior. Overall, Phineas Gage contributed to the fact that the brain controls how we process information.

1. Phineas Gage was not himself after the accident. he would seem to always have seizures also he would be less caring of his friends and family
2. Phineas Gage's accident change the understanding of the brain to scientist  by showing the scientist how behavior can change from an accident to the brain and also how it changes their decision making skills

1. After this incident, Gage behavior had changed into being impatient of anyone who tried to help him. He often changed his employment because he didn't feel like any of them suited him.
2. Gage's accident changed the understanding of they brain by suggesting that it handled more than language and movement, but also changed how scientists could localize function.

1. After having a pole shot through his brain, Gage was,understablably, a changed man. He became fitful and childish. He seemed to have no cares at all towards his frirends and they claimed that he was no longer himself. Gage became impatient and he would make plans no sooner then he would diminish them.
2. Through this amazing medical acomplishment, scientist are able to have a better understanding of the brain. Before the incident, scientist though the brain served only 2 functions, but after they discovered that it is resposible for many other bodily functions, in fact all of them. They discovered new things about the frontal lobe which infulences behavior, and scientics see patients today to address issues with the frontal lobe.

After the accident, he had several changes psychologically. He became fitful, and impatient, and had childlike behavior, which was very different than his behavior before. He never got his old job back as a foreman either. Having the accident happen, the scientist started to understand that the brain worked in vast ways, not just working movement and language. The rod had hit the frontal lobe, but Gage was still able to function, and talk normally. Now that the scientist saw that his movements and language was not affected, but the way he was emotionally, they started to wonder if the brain controlled more than just movement. This opened up many questions that lead to today's extensive  understanding of the brain.

After the accident Phineas Gage was unable to return to his job. Seizures began to occur very often, he had a child like mind set and became very passionate towards animals. His family saw him as a changed man. His personality had changed as well as his decision making. Gage's accident changed scientist understanding of the brain, because scientist used to believe the brain was only meant to control movement and speech. But after Gage now scientist have realized the brain does more than that, it has to do with ones personality and decision making as well.

After the accident, Phineas was unable to regain his job. Phineas spent About a year recovering from severe brain damage. He soon found work as museum exhibit, but later found work as a stagecoach driver.  Eventually he returned home from chile in a weakened state. later suffering from seizures, that eventually lead to his death.
We now know that a person can live after severe of brain damage.

# data[].attributes.body
Phineas lost his job after his accident. He developed an infection and slipped into a coma. After three months he came out of his coma. He was very passionate towards animals. Since he couldn't get his job back, he traveled the country showing himself off to people so he could make money. He then worked as a stagecoach driver for 18 months. He moved back to SF where his seizures started again. Those seizures eventually lead to his death on 21 May 1860.

Scientists saw after Phineas' accident that the brain controls more than just body movement, it controls social behavior, emotions, and much more. They also learned that some parts of the brain can be removed and a person can still function relatively normal.

Although Phineas had the same basic functions physically after the accident, his mental and emotional states were deteriorated.  Once a 'temperate' man he turned into a 'fitful and impatient' person who his friends didn't recognize.  His switch in behavior led to the loss of his original job and him not being able to keep a steady one.  From his accident, scientists learned that the brain had vastly more control over our lives than preciously thought.  Gage's physician later determined that damage to the frontal lobe was what caused his behavior to change.  It also suggested that the brain didn't just control speech and movement, but social behavior and emotions.  We learned more about how the brain processes information because of Gage and were better prepared to use technoligical advances in modern times because of the inferences made over 100 years ago.

Phineas lost his job at the railroad and decided to help run a livery stable and stage-coach service. After the accident, he was very ill and weakened. His behavior changed in many ways like acting childish, impatient and became very interested in animals. His friends and mother called him "no longer Gage". He later on became epileptic and his seizures increased in severity. On May 18th, he went to his moms house where he suffered many seizures and then on May 21st, the seizures had finally killed him.
Phineas Gage's accident changed the understanding of the brain forever. The physician who worked with him began to correlate behavior changes with the brain damage in the frontal lobe of the brain. It was then suggested that emotions and social behaviors were also apart of the brain. Scientist later found out that the tamping iron damaged both hemispheres of the frontal lobe.

Phineas lost his job working for the rail roads.  He developed a very serious infection and entered a coma.  Three months later he awoke and began to regain his strength.  He began traveling with a museum to exhibit himself and what had happened to him.  He began driving a stagecoach, after 18 months he decided to go to Chile to pursue another stagecoach job.  He later decided to move back to his family, now living in San Francisco.  He soon started feeling poor and began having seizures.  They soon became very serious and resulted in his death.
This case motivated many scientific studies on the brain.  This case showed that damage to the brain does not only mean the person may survive but live a somewhat healthy and normal life.  Phineas, losing a portion of his brain, showed the scientific community that there was much more to learn about the brain and its functions.  Scientists learned that the brain is responsible for not only social skills, movement, and other body functions, but it also controls our emotions.  Scientists also learned that the brain is divided and each section is responsible for something other than the other.

1. Phineas was not able to return to his previous job. He had become fitful and showed little to no respect for his fellow workers. He did not like getting advice on things that conflicted with things that he felt passionate about. He had the intellect of a child but was a strong man. People close to him said he was a different man and no longer Phineas Gage.
2. During Gage's time they thought the brain controlled movement and language. The thought that the brain also controlled social behavior and emotions was very new. With this new information they found that he had damaged the frontal lobe of his brain. This is the section that influences social behavior. This would explain why people said that Gage was a different man. Emotional and decision making abilities are also affected.

# data[].attributes.body
After the accident he couldn't regain his foreman job, he instead tried a few different types of jobs before becoming a stage coach driver in Chile. After that he became ill and returned to his family. He then had epileptic seizures that got increasingly worse. The seizures ended up killing him.

The accident helped change the understanding of the brain for scientists'. They had found a correlation between the head injury and some behavioral changes . Scientists' at the time only thought the brain controlled the thought, movement, and language control. The thought that the brain controlled emotions and social behavior was a very new idea

Phineas Gage couldn't hold a job as he developed epilepsy and several behavioral differences that would make any employer weary. His family and friends told doctors that he wasn't Gage anymore. One doctor even went to far as to say that the balance between the primal animal side and intelligent facilities was gone. He began acting childishly. He became irritable when things did not go his way, he became impatient, and he would have fits of selfishness. He developed a strong attachment to children and animals, though both were trumped by his fondness for the tamping iron that went through his skull. The doctor who treated Gage soon realized that the frontal region of the brain was associated with emotions and social behavior. During this time the brain was thought to only control language and movement. It was also thought that the brain did not have localized functions, but with the study of Gage's brain, scientists gained insight into brain's processing of information. Later studies found that both hemispheres of the frontal lobe were damaged which correlated to dramatic changes in decision-making skills and emotional behavior.

1./Phineas started to have really bad seizures and was diagnosed as an epileptic.  Intellect was reduced to that of a child and became profane and impatient.

2.Brought scientists to realize that the brain controlled social and emotional functions.  Before the incident the brain was thought to lack localized functions.  Revolutionized view of the brain and its functions.

For 11 and a half years after the accident, Gage remained fairly normal. He was unable to return to his job as a foreman but began being a long distance stagecoach driver. Psychologically, Gage developed a violent, irritated behavior. He became impatient and profane. He had the intellectual capacity of a child and had the 'animal passions of a strong man'. Gage also developed a love for animals. After about 12 years, he suffered a series of seizures that eventually killed him.

Gage's accident changed scientists' understanding of the brain fairly quickly. About 20 years after his accident, one of Gage's physicians realized that the brain not only controls language and movement, but behavior and emotions as well. Scientists' also thought that the brain lacked localized functions, this was proved wrong by Phineas Gage. Scientists' now understand the different hemispheres of the brain and their functions.

# data[].attributes.body
Numerous changes occurred after the accident; he was not able to get another job for a while because of the changes in his behavior and the onset of epilepsy along with seizures caused his death eleven and a half years after the accident. The way he talked was also another reason to believe that the injury had greatly changed him as well. The accident changed his behavior to that of a child and therefore many people believed that the part of the brain that had been affected how he acted; he was very impatient, he carried the iron rod with him like a child would with a blanket, and he also became very irritable and very hard to please. Even his own mother and his friends believed he was no longer himself after the accident.

later on, scientists began to understand that the frontal region that had been damaged was linked to social behavior. That part of the brain was one of the main parts that makes up someone's emotional/decision making abilities, and due to Phineas Gage, scientists were able to realize that the brain controls much more than basic actions such motor functions and could actual do localized functions.

Phineas was unable to get his job back. He then worked as a stagecoach driver for 18 months. He became epileptic and had seizures. He lost all sense of balance between his animal instincts and his intellect. He began acting like a child. This event helped scientists to further understand brain function using computers and models of Phineas's skull. They discovered that the frontal lobe controlled social functions. People with damaged frontal lobes have changed personalities and they lose some decision making skills.

Phineas Gage was unable to return to his previous job because of his physical and psychological state after the accident. He became violent and fitful with the intellectual capacity of a child and the animal instincts of a grown man. He became very impatient and he could not set goals and keep to them. His plans about the future kept changing. Phineas' friends and family said that he had changed so much he was not the same person any more. He spent time entertaining his nieces and nephews with stories and adventures and he developed a love for animals.

The metal rod went through the front portion of Phineas' brain. The physician who had been treating him associated his change in behavior with the damage to that part of the brain. Previously, the brain was just thought to control motor functions and necessary physical functions. The concept that the brain also controlled emotions and behavior was brand new information. Without knowing it, Phineas contributed greatly to scientist's understanding about how the brain works and processes information. These new discoveries were made 20 years after his accident, however, so Phineas did not get to live to see his unintentional legacy.

# data[].attributes.body
1.Phineas Gage developed a serious infection, dipped in and out of comas for about a month, and then spent a year recovering fully. He was relatively unchanged for twelve years before he developed late onset epilepsy. Gage was changed dramatically as an individual as well. He became profane, childlike intellectually, and was subject to passions. He became difficult to reason with and cared not for constraints or advice and perhaps lost his ability to relate to others and empathise. His new personality was almost perfectly opposite the man he used to be.
2. The changes in Gage's person were decided to be correlated with the brain damage he had experienced. This particular event opened new avenues to understanding exactly how the brain works. Scientists now realised the brain has localised functions rather than the entire organ performing thought processes all at once. They discovered specifically that the frontal lobe governed social interactions, behaviour, and decision making.

# data[].attributes.body
Phineas Gage was unable to return to his former job because he suffered from epilepsy not to mention his behaviors changed making him more animalistic in the sense that he was more aggressive and impatient. Many of his friends no longer considered him to be "Gage" after the accident and employees were reluctant to hire him.
Since Gage's behavior changed after the accident it led scientists to come to several conclusions.   The rod hit in the frontal lobe of his brain but many of Gage's symptoms did not match with what scientists previously thought; Before it was believed that the brain controlled movement and speech but Gage's change in personality and behavior proved that the brain also is in charge of emotions and behavior. Scientists also found that the brain has specialized areas/localized functions since only certain parts of Gage were altered. These changes corresponded with the frontal lobe of his brain.
