The review first discusses componential explanations of automaticity, which specify
non/automaticity features (eg, un/controlled, un/conscious, non/efficient, fast/slow) and their …

Research on unconscious or unaware vision has demonstrated that unconscious
processing can be flexibly adapted to the current goals of human agents. The present review …

In our ASSC20 symposium,“Does unconscious perception really exist?”, the four of us asked
some difficult questions about the purported phenomenon of unconscious perception …

Response priming is a well-understood but sparsely employed paradigm in cognitive
science. The method is powerful and well-suited for exploring early visuomotor processing …

Whether conscious perception requires attention remains a topic of intense debate. While
certain complex stimuli such as faces and animals can be discriminated outside the focus of …

Inhibitory control such as active selective response inhibition is currently a major topic in
cognitive neuroscience. Here we analyze the shape of behavioral RT and accuracy …

Research on perception without awareness primarily relies on the dissociation paradigm,
which compares a measure of awareness of a critical stimulus (direct measure) with a …

A number of influential theories posit that visual awareness relies not only on the initial,
stimulus-driven (ie, feedforward) sweep of activation but also on recurrent feedback activity …

Equivalence of attention and consciousness is disputed and necessity of attentional effects
for conscious experience has become questioned. However, the conceptual landscape and …

Visual stimuli can be classified so rapidly that their analysis may be based on a single
sweep of feedforward processing through the visuomotor system. Behavioral criteria for …
