Distinct electrophysiological correlates of low- and high-level visual consciousness with minimized post-perceptual processing

iScience October 17, 2026 Annika Hense, Antje Peters, Torge Dellert et al.

Summary: Conscious visual phenomenology comprises multiple representational levels, from basic features to integrated percepts, raising the question of how the neural correlates of consciousness (NCC) differentiate accordingly. Event-related potential (ERP) studies identified early occipitotemporal negativities as reliable NCC; yet, it remains unclear whether these capture conscious content...

Stimulus duration modulates awareness-dependent brain activation in the fusiform gyrus independently of task-relevance

URN:NBN Resolver for Germany & Switzerland April 15, 2026 Antje Peters, Annika Hense, Maximilian Bruchmann et al.

Conscious perception in daily life encompasses continuous experience and persistent percepts of visual inputs. However, the temporal dimension of consciousness, specifically neural mechanisms maintaining sustained conscious percepts over time, remains comparatively understudied. Many studies feature either brief stimulus durations or prolonged supraliminal stimuli without inducing an...

Electrophysiological correlates of sustained conscious perception.

Scientific Reports May 8, 2024 Annika Hense, Antje Peters, Maximilian Bruchmann et al.

Previous research on the neural correlates of consciousness (NCC) in visual perception revealed an early event-related potential (ERP), the visual awareness negativity (VAN), to be associated with stimulus awareness. However, due to the use of brief stimulus presentations in previous studies, it remains unclear whether awareness-related negativities represent a transient onset-related response...

Electrophysiological Evidence for Distinct Neural Correlates of Low- and High-Level Visual Consciousness Independent of Post-Perceptual Processing

Annika Hense, Antje Peters, Torge Dellert et al. preprint

The nature of conscious visual phenomenology comprises multiple representational levels, from basic features to integrated percepts, raising questions regarding the differentiation of the neural correlates of consciousness (NCC). While event-related potential (ERP) studies identified early occipitotemporal negativities as reliable NCC, it remains unclear whether these early negative components...
