An exploration of pre-attentive visual discrimination using event-related potentials
… method of presenting visual test stimuli without conscious perception, a continuous visual stream paradigm was developed that used a briefly presented checkerboard stimulus combined with masking for exploring stimulus detection below and above subjective levels of perception. A correlate of very …

EXPLORING PHYSIOLOGICAL, PATHOLOGICAL AND PARAPHYSIOLOGICAL BRAIN ACTIVITY ACROSS SCALES WITH SIMULTANEOUS INVASIVE AND NON-INVASIVE EEG
… regions to higher-order areas involved in perception. While hd-EEG captured fast, large-scale activity, SEEG provided detailed recordings from deep cortical structures. This integration revealed both phasic and tonic gamma band brain responses, offering new insights into sensory processing …

The Role of olfactory cues and their effects on food choice and acceptability
… the effects of exposure to food odours on hunger perception; the effects of exposure to food odours with both high and low hedonic ratings on food choice, consumption and acceptability; and the application of odour exposure in a restaurant environment. Results from these studies indicated that …

Studies of generalized worry in college students
… presented words was used to quantify threat perception across various stages of information processing. Chronic high worriers exhibited word-induced startle facilitation at all stages of information processing. Notably, the failure to show startle inhibition at a timepoint associated with the …

Mechanisms of thermal sensitivity in rodent primary afferent neurons innervating the skin
… object identification, thermoregulation and the conscious perception of pain. Humans can differentiate at least three distinct cold sensations: innocuous cooling, cold pain and pain evoked by freezing. However, patients with painful neuropathies often suffer from cold allodynia, where normally …
