Soto, D. (2017). How do we keep information ‘on-line’? Trends in Cognitive Sciences, 21(2), 63-65. Doi: 10.1016/j.tics.2016.12.009
Resumen
New magnetoencephalography (MEG) results indicate that a putative marker of conscious processes – namely, the global broadcasting of information across large-scale cortical networks – can also operate during the maintenance of non-conscious input. I discuss the implications for the theoretical linkage between conscious awareness and working memory functions.
