claimMotivation and intention function as a feedback system for self-schema maintenance, where sensory input is compared to a reference, and discrepancies feed back into frontal goal-oriented networks and pre-motor-action networks.
claimIntention is defined as a purposive plan of action and the selection of timing for that action.
claimIntention is a critical component of mindfulness that motivates the practitioner to begin or sustain practice and activates EES networks that may help extinguish maladaptive habitual perceptual-motor action tendencies.
claimThe S-ART framework identifies intention and motivation, attention regulation, emotion regulation, extinction and reconsolidation, prosociality, non-attachment, and decentering as supporting neuropsychological mechanisms.
claimShapiro and colleagues (2006) proposed that intention is a fundamental building block for the emergence of neurocognitive mechanisms used to cultivate mindfulness.
claimUnderstanding the intentions of another person likely recruits neural processes underlying insight into oneself.
claimThe S-ART (Self-awareness, self-regulation, and self-transcendence) framework proposes six neurocognitive component mechanisms—intention and motivation, attention and emotion regulation, extinction and reconsolidation, prosociality, non-attachment, and de-centering—that are integrated and strengthened through intentional mental strategies to modulate networks of self-processing and reduce bias.
claimIntention and motivation in meditation practice may target attentional tuning and affective control settings, contributing to affect-biased attention.
claimIntention and motivation are driven by goal-directed behavior, which is based on inter-related aspects of affective style and biological disposition.
referenceThe S-ART (Self-awareness, self-regulation, and self-transcendence) framework identifies six component mechanisms underlying the practice and cultivation of mindfulness: intention and motivation, attention regulation, emotion regulation, memory extinction and reconsolidation, prosociality, and non-attachment and de-centering.
Attention - Open Encyclopedia of Cognitive Science - MIT oecs.mit.edu Jul 24, 2024 3 facts
claimRecent cognitive science research postulates that top-down intentions and bottom-up saliency maps are integrated to form a priority map of space.
claimSaliency maps function as a bottom-up bias, while intentions function as a top-down bias, and both serve as internal mechanisms to resolve behavioral competition and set attention.
claimIntention acts as a top-down bias that can resolve behavioral competition by allowing an agent to arbitrarily select a target, such as a donkey deciding to eat the hay on the left.

claimHenry Stapp posits that a pattern of neural activity may encode an intention and represent a template for action, which serves as the basis for free will.
claimHenry Stapp provided commentary on the concepts of attention and intention in relation to William James' idea of a holistic stream of consciousness.
claimBriegel and Müller (2015) and Müller and Briegel (2018) proposed a quantum approach to understanding agency, intention, and other philosophy of mind topics.
4.5 Consciousness – Cognitive Psychology nmoer.pressbooks.pub 2 facts
claimThe Social Neuroscience Theory of Consciousness proposes that the brain mechanism used to model other people's attention and intention was adapted to construct a model of one's own attention and intention, which is perceived as consciousness.
referenceThe Social Neuroscience Theory of Consciousness, proposed by Graziano and Kastner in 2011, posits that the human brain constructs models of other people's attention and intention to predict their behavior in social environments.

claimIf intentions can produce actions but phenomenal states cannot produce intentions, such as the feeling of love failing to cause the intention to hug someone, it places significant limitations on human agency.
