This study uses fMRI to investigate auditory awareness and finds increased secondary auditory activity, not fronto-parietal, is linked to conscious perception in a no-report task.

This study investigates nonconscious processing of fearful and neutral faces using ERP components, finding stronger N170 responses to nonconscious fearful faces compared to neutral ones, though weaker than conscious effects.

This study examines how insula lesions affect cognitive and affective empathy in response to emotional valence and intensity using a naturalistic paradigm, finding specific deficits in negative, low-intensity affective empathy.

This study investigates how awareness and task relevance affect MMN generation using computational models, finding that prediction error models explain task-relevant stimuli while adaptation models explain task-irrelevant and unaware stimuli.

The paper examines how prediction error and adaptation differ across auditory cortical regions during deviance processing using fMRI and an auditory oddball paradigm.
