Missing the forest because of the trees: slower alternations during binocular rivalry are associated with lower levels of visual detail during ongoing thought [0.03%]
只见树木不见森林：双眼竞争时较慢的交替与持续思考过程中较低水平的视觉细节有关

Conscious awareness of the world fluctuates, either through variation in how vividly we perceive the environment, or when our attentional focus shifts away from information in the external environment towards information that we generate vi...
A new experimental phenomenological method to explore the subjective features of psychological phenomena: its application to binocular rivalry [0.03%]
探索心理现象主观特征的新实验现象学方法：在双眼竞争中的应用

The subjective features of psychological phenomena have been studied intensively in experimental science in recent years. Although various methods have been proposed to identify subjective features of psychological phenomena, there are elus...
Integrating information in the brain's EM field: the cemi field theory of consciousness [0.03%]
大脑电磁场中的信息整合：意识的cemi场理论

A key aspect of consciousness is that it represents bound or integrated information, prompting an increasing conviction that the physical substrate of consciousness must be capable of encoding integrated information in the brain. However, a...
Causal manipulation of feed-forward and recurrent processing differentially affects measures of consciousness [0.03%]
对前馈和复发处理的因果操控对意识的测量有差异影响
Christopher Allen,Tommaso Viola,Elizabeth Irvine et al.
Christopher Allen et al.
It has been theorized that cortical feed-forward and recurrent neural activity support unconscious and conscious cognitive processes, respectively. Here we causally tested this proposition by applying event-related transcranial magnetic sti...
How mood tunes prediction: a neurophenomenological account of mood and its disturbance in major depression [0.03%]
情绪如何调整预测：情绪及其在重度抑郁中紊乱的神经现象学账户

In this article, we propose a neurophenomenological account of what moods are, and how they work. We draw upon phenomenology to show how mood attunes a person to a space of significant possibilities. Mood structures a person's lived experie...

The sense of agency is typically defined as the experience of controlling one's own actions, and through them, changes in the external environment. It is often assumed that this experience is a single, unified construct that can be experime...

It has been established that lip reading improves the perception of auditory speech. But does seeing objects themselves help us hear better the sounds they make? Here we report a series of psychophysical experiments in humans showing that t...

For the materialist, the hard problem is fundamentally an explanatory problem. Solving it requires explaining why the relationship between brain and experience is the way it is and not some other way. We use the tools of the interventionist...
The Dream Catcher experiment: blinded analyses failed to detect markers of dreaming consciousness in EEG spectral power [0.03%]
梦境捕捉实验：在脑电功率谱中盲分析未能检测到做梦意识的标志
William Wong,Valdas Noreika,Levente Móró et al.
William Wong et al.
The Dream Catcher test defines the criteria for a genuine discovery of the neural constituents of phenomenal consciousness. Passing the test implies that some patterns of purely brain-based data directly correspond to the subjective feature...
The science of consciousness does not need another theory, it needs a minimal unifying model [0.03%]

This article discusses a hypothesis recently put forward by Kanai et al., according to which information generation constitutes a functional basis of, and a sufficient condition for, consciousness. Information generation involves the abilit...
