but not limited to, functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI), electrocortiography (ECoG), electroencephalogram (EEG), and functional near infrared spectroscopy (fNIRS). Depending on the type of neuroimaging technique the neural decoder uses different types of mental processes...
Longer duration fMRI datasets using more naturalistic stimuli have a small number of participants and one stimulus (though see57). These include 11 people watching ‘Raiders of the Lost Ark’58and 20 listening to an audio description of ‘Forrest Gump’ during fMRI. A subset of the latter retu...
According to the authors, when we change our assumption about consciousness and assume that it is a relativistic phenomenon, the mystery of consciousness naturally dissolves. In the paper the researchers developed a conceptual and mathematical framework to understand consciousness from a relativistic point...
Binocular rivalry occurs when two eyes receive conflicting information that cannot be integrated into one single, coherent percept, and it refers to the alternations in perception between the two monocular inputs that ensue in this situation. Rivalry thus allows researchers to alter subjective awareness...
The study was conducted in Berlin and Hamburg because the participating researchers had their respective institutional affiliations in these two cities, and thus could enlist the help of both research assistants and lecturers willing to let us conduct our study in their classes. 3 To secure variety...
which could be inferred from cortical desynchrony on the EEG and metabolic increments on the fMRI. Such studies led researchers to propose that the left anterior cerebrum processes positive emotional expression and that the right anterior cerebrum processes negative emotional expression (Davidson1992a; ...

fMRIPrep is a functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) data preprocessing pipeline that is designed to provide an easily accessible, state-of-the-art interface that is robust to variations in scan acquisition protocols and that requires minimal user input, while providing easily interpretable and ...
13. This activation might be due to the fact that the tasks utilized in the fMRI studies typically employed relatively frequent PM cues. This would emphasize the allocation of strategic monitoring resources since individuals tend to engage monitoring when expecting the occurrence of the PM cue39,40...
there is a societal benefit to sharing human brain data: fMRI data are expensive to acquire and the reuse of publicly shared fMRI data is estimated to have saved billions in public funding61. Public data also receive much greater scrutiny, with the potential to reveal (and rectify) “bugs”...
