Answer;

-Association

Regions of the cortex that are NOT primarily concerned with sensation or movement are termed the association cortex.

Step-by-step explanation;

-Association cortex is the cerebral cortex outside the primary areas. It is essential for mental functions that are more complex than detecting basic dimensions of sensory stimulation, for which primary sensory areas appear to be necessary.

-The association cortices include most of the cerebral surface of the human brain and are largely responsible for the complex processing that goes on between the arrival of input in the primary sensory cortices and the generation of behavior.
