When faced with a difficult decision, it is often suggested to "sleep on it" or take a break from thinking about the decision in order to gain clarity. But new brain imaging research from Carnegie ...

The theory of unconscious thought proposes that our cognitive systems continuously process complex information without deliberate effort. This mode of thinking is contrasted with the more deliberate, ...

In CFS, breaking time (BT) is a useful tool to investigate unconscious processing. BT indicates the duration for a suppressed stimulus to overcome suppression and become consciously perceived by the ...

The ability to associate remotely-connected elements underlies discoveries and creations in fields as diverse as Physics, Mathematics and Art. Philosopher and physicist Henri Poincare once noted that ...

As we tuck ourselves into bed at night, little do we realize that we have the chance to get some extra work done while we sleep. The unconscious mind has long been appreciated as a well of creativity ...

Among brain researchers there’s a truism that says the reason people underestimate how much unconscious processing goes on in your brain is because you’re not conscious of it. And while there is a lot ...

Is consciousness necessary for integration? Findings of seemingly high-level object-scene integration in the absence of awareness have challenged major theories in the field and attracted considerable ...
