We propose a new account of how self-reference affects information processing. We report
evidence that self-reference affects the binding of memory to source, the integration of parts …

Selective visual attention describes the tendency of visual processing to be confined largely
to stimuli that are relevant to behavior. It is among the most fundamental of cognitive …

We review the discovery, characterization, and evolving use of the N400, an event-related
brain potential response linked to meaning processing. We describe the elicitation of N400s …

The rapid and efficient selection of emotionally salient or goal-relevant stimuli in the
environment is crucial for flexible and adaptive behaviors. Converging data from …

The present paper argues for the notion that when attention is spread across the visual field
in the first sweep of information through the brain visual selection is completely stimulus …

Over the past several decades, electroencephalogram (EEG)-based brain-computer
interfaces (BCIs) have attracted attention from researchers in the field of neuroscience …

The problem of consciousness continues to be a subject of great debate in cognitive
science. Synthesizing decades of research, The Conscious Brain advances a new theory of …

An essential guide to designing, conducting, and analyzing event-related potential (ERP)
experiments, completely updated for this edition. The event-related potential (ERP) …

The review summarizes and integrates findings from 40 years of event-related potential
(ERP) studies using pictures that differ in valence (unpleasant-to-pleasant) and arousal (low …

We often fail to see something that at other times is readily detectable. Because the visual
stimulus itself is unchanged, this variability in conscious awareness is likely related to …
