      abstract     = {Previous research has indicated the importance of the
                      frontal lobe and its 'executive' connections to other brain
                      structures as crucial in explaining primate neocortical
                      adaptations. However, a representative sample of volumetric
                      measurements of frontal connective tissue (white matter) has
                      not been available. In this study, we present new volumetric
                      measurements of white and grey matter in the frontal and
                      non-frontal neocortical lobes from 18 anthropoid species. We
                      analyze this data in the context of existing theories of
                      neocortex, frontal lobe and white versus grey matter
                      hyperscaling. Results indicate that the 'universal scaling
                      law' of neocortical white to grey matter applies separately
                      for frontal and non-frontal lobes; that hyperscaling of both
                      neocortex and frontal lobe to rest of brain is mainly due to
                      frontal white matter; and that changes in frontal (but not
                      non-frontal) white matter volume are associated with changes
                      in rest of brain and basal ganglia, a group of subcortical
                      nuclei functionally linked to 'executive control'. Results
                      suggest a central role for frontal white matter in
                      explaining neocortex and frontal lobe hyperscaling, brain
                      size variation and higher neural structural connectivity in
                      anthropoids.},
