Selfhood triumvirate: From phenomenology to brain activity and back again.

Consciousness and Cognition November 1, 2020 Andrew A Fingelkurts, Alexander A Fingelkurts, Tarja Kallio-Tamminen 41 citations

Recently, a three-dimensional construct model for complex experiential Selfhood has been proposed (Fingelkurts, Fingelkurts, & Kallio-Tamminen, 2016b,c). According to this model, three specific subnets (or modules) of the brain self-referential network (SRN) are responsible for the manifestation of three aspects/features of the subjective sense of Selfhood. Follow up multiple studies...

Trait lasting alteration of the brain default mode network in experienced meditators and the experiential selfhood

February 12, 2016 A. Fingelkurts, Tarja Kallio-Tamminen

Based on the finding in novices that four months of meditation training significantly increases frontal default mode network (DMN) module/subnet synchrony while decreasing left and right posterior DMN modules synchrony, the current study tested the prediction whether experienced meditators (those who are practising meditation intensively for several years) had a change in the DMN “trinity” of...

Long-term meditation training induced changes in the operational synchrony of default mode network modules during a resting state.

Cognitive processing February 1, 2016 Andrew A Fingelkurts, Alexander A Fingelkurts, Tarja Kallio-Tamminen

Using theoretical analysis of self-consciousness concept and experimental evidence on the brain default mode network (DMN) that constitutes the neural signature of self-referential processes, we hypothesized that the anterior and posterior subnets comprising the DMN should show differences in their integrity as a function of meditation training. Functional connectivity within DMN and its...
