The Entangled Loop: Emotion, quantum-like interference and hierarchy in the architecture of consciousness
PsyArXiv July 3, 2026 preprint
We propose three entangled characteristics that explain the functional properties of consciousness: Emotion, quantum-like interference and hierarchy. The argument proceeds from thermodynamic first principles. Biological systems must stay far from equilibrium at minimal energy cost, and emotion is one of evolution’s heuristic solutions to this constraint. Valenced summary statistics compress the...

Trait absorption as predictor of altered states of consciousness across three relaxation induction methods
PsyArXiv June 26, 2026 preprint
This study investigates the effects of three variants of Restricted Environmental Stimulation Techniques (REST)—guided meditation, multimodal Ganzfeld (MMGF), and a control resting condition—on subjective experiences related to altered states of consciousness (ASC). Specifically, the study examines emotional responses, time perception, and perceived body boundaries, while also assessing the...
EVALUATING THE BIOLOGICAL RELEVANCE OF THE RELATIVISTIC THEORY OF CONSCIOUSNESS
PsyArXiv June 25, 2026 preprint
According to the Relativistic Theory of Consciousness by Lahav and Neemeh, consciousness is not an absolute feature but a relativistic one that depends on the reference system of the observer. The theory offers a new, thought-provoking view on consciousness, but also raises critical issues. First: What is the fundamental precondition of consciousness which the Relativistic Theory may be based...
Out-Of-Body Experiences During Sleep Show Altered-Self Phenomenology Without A Distinct Clinical Profile
PsyArXiv June 21, 2026 preprint
Out-of-body experiences (OBEs) during sleep involve a transient disruption of bodily self-consciousness, in which the self or center of awareness is experienced as displaced from the physical body. Although OBEs have been reported in neurological, psychiatric, and dissociative contexts, they also occur in non-clinical populations, raising the question of whether their altered-self phenomenology...
Revisiting Brain Circuits Subserving Self-Consciousness: A Cognitive Computational Perspective
PsyArXiv June 21, 2026 preprint
The neural basis of self-consciousness has been intensively investigated for decades, with numerous studies characterizing distributed brain areas engaged in self-related processing. Despite systematic descriptions of core brain regions and functional architectures in previous reviews, a unified theoretical framework explaining the mechanisms of self-consciousness has yet to be established....

Could Brain-Computer Interfaces Advance Our Understanding of the Nature of Consciousness?
PsyArXiv June 19, 2026 preprint
Recent developments in theoretical frameworks and experimental approaches have improved our understanding of the problems that need to be solved for us to advance in the understanding of the neural mechanisms underlying consciousness. Yet, there is a long way ahead as evident from the recent Cogitate adversarial collaboration that attempted to directly contrast Integrated Information Theory...
