TLDR
This work defends the higher-order view against several major criticisms, such as prefrontal activity reflects attention but not awareness, and prefrontal lesion does not abolish awareness.About:

Motor response influences perceptual awareness judgements.
Marta Siedlecka,Justyna Hobot,Zuzanna Skóra,Borysław Paulewicz,Bert Timmermans,Michał Wierzchoń +5 more
TL;DR: The results suggest that the motor response overlapping with a potential response to the stimulus provides information about the outcome of decision process and increases the reported awareness of stimuli.
Journal ArticleDOI
Becoming Confident in the Statistical Nature of Human Confidence Judgments.
TL;DR: It is demonstrated that human confidence judgments seem to arise from computations compatible with statistical decision theory, shining a new light on the old questions of how such judgments are formed.

When attended and conscious perception deactivates fronto-parietal regions
Ausaf A. Farooqui,Tom Manly +1 more
TL;DR: It is speculated that fronto-parietal deactivation during non-target events may be related to the suppression of potential interference from salient, conscious, but non-goal stimuli.

Conscious Visual Memory With Minimal Attention
Yair Pinto,Annelinde R. E. Vandenbroucke,Marte Otten,Ilja G. Sligte,Anil K. Seth,Victor A. F. Lamme +5 more
TL;DR: It is found that minimizing spatial attention almost entirely erases visual WM, as expected, and fragile memory remains largely intact, suggesting that conscious memory persists with limited spatial attention.
Journal ArticleDOI
Integrating the global neuronal workspace into the framework of predictive processing: Towards a working hypothesis.
TL;DR: This article outlines the empirical predictions that distinguish the global neuronal workspace from other workspace models and explores the evidence for the first of these predictions in the context of bistable perception and the conscious processing of auditory regularities.

Signal detection theory and psychophysics
David M. Green,John A. Swets +1 more
TL;DR: This book discusses statistical decision theory and sensory processes in signal detection theory and psychophysics and describes how these processes affect decision-making.
Journal ArticleDOI
What is it like to be a bat
TL;DR: Consciousness is what makes the mind-body problem really intractable as mentioned in this paper, which is why current discussions of the problem give it little attention or get it obviously wrong.
Book
The Cognitive Neurosciences
TL;DR: The fourth edition of The Cognitive Neurosciences continues to chart new directions in the study of the biologic underpinnings of complex cognition -the relationship between the structural and physiological mechanisms of the nervous system and the psychological reality of the mind as discussed by the authors.
Journal ArticleDOI
The Neural Basis of Decision Making
TL;DR: This work focuses on simple decisions that can be studied in the laboratory but emphasize general principles likely to extend to other settings, including deliberation and commitment.
