The Primacy of Cellular Consciousness

CRC Press eBooks May 4, 2023 William B. Miller

Modern science ratifies that conscious self-awareness is present in all cells as a scale-free phenomenon for the reception and measured assessment of integrated information. One remaining contention is whether cellular self-referential cognition represents both conscious self-awareness and experientiality. This capacity to knowingly &s;experience&s; represents the supposed &s;hard problem&s;,...

Living in a bad dream – examining the association between depersonalisation traits and the bodily self in waking and dreaming

May 4, 2023 Matt P D Gwyther, Bigna Lenggenhager, Jennifer Windt et al. preprint

Depersonalisation (DP) is characterized by fundamental alterations to the sense of self that include feelings of detachment and estrangement from one’s body. We conducted an online study in healthy participants (n=514) with DP traits to investigate and quantify the subjective experience of body and self during waking and dreaming, as the vast majority of previous studies focussed on waking...

Commentary: Physical time within human time

Frontiers in Psychology May 4, 2023 Michael Silberstein

It is important to begin by distinguishing two types of questions. There are physical/metaphysical questions and there are phenomenological or experiential questions. Traditionally, starting with Husserl, in a neo-Kantian transcendental spirit, the discipline of phenomenology has sought to "bracket" questions of experience from metaphysical questions. There are those who believe however that...

Cognitive liberty and the psychedelic humanities.

Frontiers in Psychology May 4, 2023 Osiris S González-Romero 10 citations

This research aims to conceptualize cognitive liberty and the psychedelic humanities by examining their constitutive elements. The importance of this study lies in the fact that it is widespread to talk about psychedelic science nowadays, but there is a significant gap in the research. For instance, the role and importance of the humanities need to be acknowledged. Regarding cognitive liberty,...

Consciousness and the mind-brain relationship

May 3, 2023 Richard A. Gross

Psychology began its life as a separate discipline taking consciousness/mental life as its subject-matter. The ‘hard problem’ of consciousness arises when we acknowledge that the physical brain (which requires a third-person account) is somehow involved in our subjective experience (which requires a first-person account). Freud’s account of consciousness is discussed alongside more recent,...

Effectiveness of a Mindfulness Meditation App Based on an Electroencephalography-Based Brain-Computer Interface in Radiofrequency Catheter Ablation for Patients With Atrial Fibrillation: Pilot Randomized Controlled Trial.

JMIR mHealth and uHealth May 3, 2023 Ying He, Zhijie Tang, Guozhen Sun et al. 21 citations

Radiofrequency catheter ablation (RFCA) for patients with atrial fibrillation (AF) can generate considerable physical and psychological discomfort under conscious sedation. App-based mindfulness meditation combined with an electroencephalography (EEG)-based brain-computer interface (BCI) shows promise as effective and accessible adjuncts in medical practice. This study aimed to investigate the...

Thinking action as a performative and participative mental awareness.

Frontiers in Psychology May 2, 2023 Renatus Ziegler, Ulrich Weger

This paper seeks to evaluate experiential facets of thinking action using first-person phenomenological methods. We begin our considerations using a simple mathematical proof as a case study-and also employ phenomenological contrasts between different types of thinking. They reveal that thinking actions produce performative insights rather than dispositional or remembered knowledge. This...

THE CONCEPT OF BAHIRANGA AND ANTARANGA YOGA ACCORDING TO PATANJALI YOGA SUTRA AND VASISHTHA SAMHITA: A COMPARATIVE STUDY

VIDYA - A JOURNAL OF GUJARAT UNIVERSITY May 2, 2023 Shriya `s, Nehal Dave

Patanjali compiled a collection of sutras known as Ashtanga Yoga, also known as the 8-fold Path of Yoga, for novice practitioners. It discusses the yogic philosophy of life and the self-realization journey. The eight folds are separated into two halves, with the first four limbs standing in for the Bahiranga, or exterior, element of yoga, and the following four for the Antaranga, or interior,...

How I became myself after merging with a computer: Does human-machine symbiosis raise human rights issues?

Brain Stimulation May 1, 2023 Frederic Gilbert, Marcello Ienca, Mark Cook

Novel usages of brain stimulation combined with artificially intelligent (AI) systems promise to address a large range of diseases. These new conjoined technologies, such as brain-computer interfaces (BCI), are increasingly used in experimental and clinical settings to predict and alleviate symptoms of various neurological and psychiatric disorders. Due to their reliance on AI algorithms for...

Torsion Geometry 5-Fold Symmetry, Anholonomic Phases, Klein Bottle Logophysics, Chaos, Resonance: Applications Towards a Novel Paradigm for the Neurosciences and Consciousness

Journal of Physics, Conference Series May 1, 2023 D. Rapoport

We discuss the torsion geometries as the universal dynamical setting for the five-fold symmetry and its relation to nonorientable surfaces of selfreference embodying a supradual logophysics, rooted in the Möbius strip and Klein Bottle. We frame the discussion in terms of image-schemas in cognitive semantics and their disruption stemming from supraduality and nonorientability. We present the...
