Sensations evoked in patients with amputation from watching an individual whose corresponding intact limb is being touched.

29 Sep 2009 BACKGROUND: After amputation of a limb, the majority of patients experience phantom sensations, such as phantom pain. Such patients provide an opportunity for the exploration of the perceptual correlates of recently discovered "mirror neurons," ... Read more...

Neural evidence of statistical learning: efficient detection of visual regularities without awareness.

29 Sep 2009 Our environment contains regularities distributed in space and time that can be detected by way of statistical learning. This unsupervised learning occurs without intent or awareness, but little is known about how it relates to other types of ... Read more...

Classical conditioning in the vegetative and minimally conscious state.

18 Sep 2009 Pavlovian trace conditioning depends on the temporal gap between the conditioned and unconditioned stimuli. It requires, in mammals, functional medial temporal lobe structures and, in humans, explicit knowledge of the temporal contingency. It is ... Read more...
