• The study involved 256 human participants who viewed suprathreshold stimuli for variable durations while their neural activity was measured using functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI), magnetoencephalography (MEG), and intracranial electroencephalography (iEEG).
• Magnetoencephalography (MEG) tracks brain chatter but has poorer spatial resolution compared to functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI).
• The study evaluated predictions of neurobiological theories of consciousness using 256 participants performing the same behavioral task across three neuroimaging modalities: functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI; n = 120), magnetoencephalography (MEG; n = 102), and intracranial electroencephalography (iEEG; n = 34).
• The adversarial study of integrated information theory (IIT) and global neuronal workspace theory (GNWT) involved 256 human participants who viewed suprathreshold stimuli for variable durations while researchers measured neural activity using functional magnetic resonance imaging, magnetoencephalography, and intracranial electroencephalography.
• The adversarial collaboration study on consciousness involved 256 human subjects who viewed suprathreshold stimuli for variable durations while neural activity was measured using functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI), magnetoencephalography (MEG), and electrocorticography (ECoG).
• The adversarial collaboration involved 256 human participants who viewed suprathreshold stimuli for variable durations while neural activity was recorded using functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI), magnetoencephalography (MEG), and intracranial electroencephalography (iEEG).
• Neuroscience studies on psychedelic drugs have primarily utilized functional Magnetic Resonance Imaging (fMRI), with ancillary research employing Magnetoencephalography (MEG) or Electroencephalography (EEG).
• Within-task category and orientation decoding were performed using a leave-one-run-out cross-validation scheme for fMRI data and a k-fold cross-validation scheme for MEG and iEEG data.
• The Cogitate Consortium measured neural activity in 256 human participants using functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI), magnetoencephalography (MEG), and intracranial electroencephalography (iEEG) while participants viewed suprathreshold stimuli for variable durations.
• The study's testing framework involved an initial optimization phase on one-third of the MEG (n = 32) and fMRI (n = 35) datasets to evaluate data quality and optimize analysis pipelines, followed by a preregistered replication phase on novel datasets (MEG n = 65 and fMRI n = 73).
• Neuroimaging studies using EEG, MEG, and fMRI are uncovering distinct neuronal correlates of selective attention and consciousness in dissociative paradigms, suggesting a functional dissociation where attention acts as an analyzer and consciousness acts as a synthesizer.
• For the MEG and fMRI datasets, one-third of the data that passed quality tests (the optimization dataset) was used to optimize analysis methods, while the remaining two-thirds (the replication dataset) were used for the reported study results.
• The fMRI decoding strategy utilized a multivariate pattern analysis approach on the pattern of BOLD activity over voxels, similar to the strategy used for iEEG and MEG data.
• The adversarial collaboration experiment comparing Global Neuronal Workspace Theory and Integrated Information Theory involved six theory-neutral labs, 250 test subjects, and utilized fMRI, MEG, and intracranial electroencephalography.
• The study combined iEEG, MEG, and fMRI techniques to mitigate the limitations of using single data modalities, creating a cross-compensating approach for testing consciousness theories.
• The Cogitate Consortium study involved 256 participants across seven laboratories worldwide, utilizing functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI), magnetoencephalography (MEG), and intracranial electroencephalography (iEEG).
• The MEG and fMRI laboratories used the MEG-compatible and fMRI-compatible EyeLink 1000 Plus Eye-tracker system (SR Research) to collect data at 1,000 Hz.
• Researchers measured neural activity in participants using functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI), magnetoencephalography (MEG), and intracranial electroencephalography.
• For MEG experiments, eye tracking data were acquired binocularly, while for fMRI experiments, data were acquired monocularly from either the left or the right eye in DCCN and Yale, respectively.
• The adversarial study on consciousness theories involved 256 human participants who viewed suprathreshold stimuli for variable durations while their neural activity was recorded using functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI), magnetoencephalography (MEG), and intracranial electroencephalography (iEEG).
• The Cogitate research project tested predictions regarding consciousness theories in 250 subjects using fMRI, EEG, MEG, and implanted ECoG electrodes, employing several decoding analyses.

Electroencephalography

Electroencephalography (EEG) and Magnetoencephalography (MEG) are both high temporal resolution neuroimaging techniques frequently used in tandem for neuroscience research, as evidenced by their shared application in studies [1], [2], and [3]. They are often processed using the same software packages [4], [5] and analyzed with similar statistical and signal processing methods [6], [7], [8], [9]. — 13 supporting facts
