“…grammatical agencies connected to the semantic field of cognition, describing cognitive acts such as thinking, remembering, or planning. It has been used in different versions to successfully link degrees of linguistic references to motor imagery in mentation reports with motor cortical activation of the respective state of consciousness (Speth, Frenzel, & Voss, 2013), to investigate the effect of transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) on motor imagery (Speth et al, 2015;Speth & Speth, 2016a), and to measure the number of linguistic indications of auditory verbal hallucinations and inner speech in different states of consciousness (Speth, Harley, & Speth, 2016), as well as to investigate memory for the future across states of consciousness (Speth, Schloerscheidt, & Speth, submitted for publication). The second part of the current tool is based on the cognitive-semantic theory of mental spaces by Fauconnier and Turner (Fauconnier, 1994;Fauconnier & Turner, 1997): The method of analysing future, past, and present mental spaces was developed for this study in order to measure if instances of cognitive agency introduced references to future, past, or present scenarios that were imagined or recalled by the participants relative to the mentation time.…”
