Persistent debate surrounds whether the frontal lobe supports the emergence or reporting of consciousness, raising the hypothesis that distinct frontal subregions may support these processes. We addressed this by combining electroencephalography (EEG) with eye-tracking in Report and No-Report paradigms. Eye-movement features distinguished conscious and unconscious trials in the no-report task....
While many studies have linked prediction errors and event related potentials at a single processing level, few consider how these responses interact across levels. In response, we present a factorial analysis of a multi-level oddball task - the local-global task - and we explore it when participants are sedated versus recovered. We found that the local and global levels in fact interact. This...
