Biology without Consciousness—and Its Consequences

It all comes back to you: from short-term memory to visual awareness

“…For instance, a lion with high priority will result in the animal entering visual awareness sooner. It is estimated that at least 60-70ms is needed for a visual stimulus to exert a basic visual experience, as constrained by neural propagation time (Efron, 1967). Jiang and the colleagues (2007) developed a new method named breaking continuous flash suppression (b-CFS, see Figure 3 for an example) based on the classical binocular rivalry paradigm to compare the priority of different stimuli to enter visual awareness.…”
