Visual Sensitivity Underlying Changes in Visual Consciousness
When viewing a different stimulus with each eye, we experience the remarkable phenomenon of binocular rivalry: alternations in consciousness between the stimuli [1, 2]. According to a popular theory first proposed in 1901, neurons encoding the two stimuli engage in reciprocal inhibition [3-8] so that those processing one stimulus inhibit those processing the other, yielding consciousness of one...
متن کاملVisual Imagery and Consciousness
As is normal with commissioned pieces like this, there were some editorial restrictions on how it should be written and structured. The title and topic were assigned to me (as well as the requirement for a glossary), and if I had had my way I would not have restricted myself to just visual imagery, but would have tried to explicitly cover imagery in other sense modes too. I believe that all sen...
متن کاملVisual consciousness and bodily self-consciousness.
PURPOSE OF REVIEW In recent years, consciousness has become a central topic in cognitive neuroscience. This review focuses on the relation between bodily self-consciousness - the feeling of being a subject in a body - and visual consciousness - the subjective experience associated with the perception of visual signals. RECENT FINDINGS Findings from clinical and experimental work have shown th...
متن کاملNon-visual consciousness and visual images in blindsight.
In a recent response paper to Brogaard (2011a), Morten Overgaard and Thor Grünbaum argue that my case for the claim that blindsight subjects are not visually conscious of the stimuli they correctly identify rests on a mistaken necessary criterion for determining whether a conscious experience is visual or non-visual. Here I elaborate on the earlier argument while conceding that the question of ...
متن کاملConnectivity Changes Underlying Neurofeedback Training of Visual Cortex Activity
Neurofeedback based on real-time functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) is a new approach that allows training of voluntary control over regionally specific brain activity. However, the neural basis of successful neurofeedback learning remains poorly understood. Here, we assessed changes in effective brain connectivity associated with neurofeedback training of visual cortex activity. Usin...
