The extent to which we are affected by perceptual input of which we are unaware is widely
debated. By measuring neural responses to sensory stimulation, neuroscientific data could …

How do we recollect specific events that have occurred during continuous ongoing
experience? There is converging evidence from non-human animals that spatially …

We suggest that there is confusion between why consciousness developed and what
additional functions, through continued evolution, it has co-opted. Consider episodic …

According to the traditional memory-systems view, the hippocampus is critical during explicit
(conscious) long-term memory, whereas other brain regions support implicit (nonconscious) …

The brain is highly segregated. Multiple mechanisms ensure that different types of memories
are processed independently. Nonetheless, information leaks out across these memory …

Integrative processing is traditionally believed to be dependent on consciousness. While
earlier studies within the last decade reported many types of integration under subliminal …

The term “memory” typically refers to conscious retrieval of events and experiences from our
past, but experience can also change our behaviour without corresponding awareness of …

Forming memories of experienced episodes calls upon the episodic memory system.
Episodic encoding may proceed with and without awareness of episodes. While up to 60 …

We are unresponsive during slow-wave sleep but continue monitoring external events for
survival. Our brain wakens us when danger is imminent. If events are non-threatening, our …

Steinkrauss and Slotnick (2024) reviewed neuroimaging studies linking the hippocampus
with implicit memory. They conclude that there is no convincing evidence that the …
