Juxtaposing the real-time unfolding of subjective experience and ERP neuromarker dynamics.

Consciousness and Cognition September 1, 2017 Renate Rutiku, Talis Bachmann

Electroencephalographic (EEG) potentials remain a valuable source of data and theories about the neural correlates of consciousness (NCC). This review organizes published work on EEG-based markers of NCC according to the time course of brain potentials relative to stimuli for which awareness is measured or manipulated. Brain potentials are treated as both dependent and independent variables. A notable pattern across studies is that relative negativization of event-related potentials (ERPs) tends to mark NCC.

Early effects of previous experience on conscious perception.

Neuroscience of Consciousness January 1, 2016 Jaan Aru, Renate Rutiku, Michael Wibral et al.

Prior knowledge influences conscious perception very early, within 80-95 milliseconds after a stimulus appears, as shown by magnetoencephalography (MEG) recordings. The effect originates in occipital and posterior parietal brain regions. These findings support predictive coding theories, which propose that prior knowledge rapidly and directly shapes perceptual experience.
