Self-awareness, self-regulation, and self-transcendence (S-ART) frontiersin.org 2 facts
claimPain attenuation through mindfulness is associated with decreased cognitive control and increased sensory processing in the brain, according to a study published in Cerebral Cortex (2012).
claimIf extinction is a common mechanism for habitual sensory, affective, and motor processing in mindfulness training, it may allow for the redefinition of boundaries between automatic and controlled processing.
The function(s) of consciousness: an evolutionary perspective frontiersin.org Nov 25, 2024 1 fact
claimThere is no proof that the neurocircuitry responsible for generating conscious experiences co-localizes with the cortical patterns of activity associated with sensory processing and memory, suggesting consciousness could reside elsewhere (Merker, 2004; Merker, 2007; Morsella et al., 2016).

referenceThe study 'A Theoretically Based Index of Consciousness Independent of Sensory Processing and Behavior' published in Science Translational Medicine introduces an index of consciousness that operates independently of sensory processing and behavior.
Theories and Methods of Consciousness biomedres.us Jan 29, 2024 1 fact
claimT. Sikkens, C. A. Bosman, and U. Olcese argued in 2019 that top-down modulation plays a critical role in shaping sensory processing across different brain states, with implications for understanding consciousness.
Attention and consciousness - SelfAwarePatterns selfawarepatterns.com Jun 12, 2022 1 fact
claimCognitive scientists debated whether the 'bottleneck' of attention occurred during early sensory processing (requiring attention for object identification) or later post-perceptual processing (allowing object identification without attention).
Seven-Year Experiment Uncovers New Insights into Nature of ... sci.news May 1, 2025 1 fact
claimThe findings from the Cogitate Consortium study de-emphasize the importance of the prefrontal cortex in consciousness, suggesting that while the prefrontal cortex is important for reasoning and planning, consciousness itself may be linked with sensory processing and perception.
Global Versus Local Theories of Consciousness and the ... link.springer.com 1 fact
referenceAdenauer Casali and colleagues developed a theoretically based index of consciousness that is independent of sensory processing and behavior, published in Science Translational Medicine in 2013.
Study Challenges Leading Theories On Consciousness Origins neurosciencenews.com May 2, 2025 1 fact
claimResearch results suggest that sensory and perceptual processing areas in the back of the brain, rather than the prefrontal cortex, may play a more central role in conscious experience.
Landmark experiment sheds new light on the origins of consciousness alleninstitute.org 1 fact
claimResearch findings indicate a functional connection between neurons in the early visual areas at the back of the brain and the frontal areas of the brain, suggesting that consciousness may be linked to sensory processing and perception rather than primarily the prefrontal cortex.
