Dehaene distinguishes conscious access from related but not identical ideas: "attention, wakefulness, vigilance, self-consciousness, and metacognition" (p. 25).. He introduces the project of measuring neural correlates of consciousness using paradigms like minimal contrasts of images, masking (subliminal stimuli), binocular rivalry, and attentional blink.
When the image hits the fovea, it is highly magnified, facilitating object recognition. The images in the periphery are less clear but help to create a complete image used for scene perception. [7] [8] [9] Visual scene segmentation is a pre-attentive process where stimuli are grouped together into specific objects against a background. [10]
Modern medical and psychological investigations into consciousness are based on psychological experiments (including, for example, the investigation of priming effects using subliminal stimuli), [92] and on case studies of alterations in consciousness produced by trauma, illness, or drugs. Broadly viewed, scientific approaches are based on two ...
Psychorama, also called the precon process, is the act of communicating subliminal information through film by flashing images on the screen so quickly that they cannot be perceived by the conscious mind.

McDonald’s is arguably the mother of all fast food chains and apparently their classic arches are supposed to make you think of one thing in particular.

As opposed to the IAPS, all OASIS images are in the public domain. A detailed description is provided on the first author's homepage. Other alternative databases of photographic images of scenes with various kinds of affective content include: Besançon Affective Picture Set-adult (BAPS-Adult) [20] Categorized Affective Pictures Database (CAP-D ...
