    My article "Consciousness Science Underdetermined: A short history of endless debates", is forthcoming in Ergo! I argue that the same debates keep coming back (and explain why) with an analysis of the history of consciousness science. Pre-print here:

    (2) Maybe this could partly address 's concern that PFC activity only reflects cognitive consequences of consciousness. Here they show that the changes in the state of the PFC reliably *precede* spontaneous binocular rivalry transitions, without reports.

    (1) Study by Dwarakanath et al., following the no-report study (Kapoor et al.) showing that PFC activity correlates with conscious contents in a no-report paradigm.

    In a second study, we find that fluctuations in the prefrontal LFP signal precede changes in conscious perception.

    A review of the evidence for the distinction between "active" working memory, implemented through persistent spiking activity, and "silent" working memory, which maintains information via short-term synaptic plasticity.

    lesion to PFC (& the white matter nearby) evaluates contrast threshold, and leads to conservative detection bias

    VERY important paper from Logothetis' group just posted on about decoding consciousness in PFC in monkeys during a no-report paradigm. VERY critical data for current debates in awareness.

    Hugo Mercier's new book is out today (). It's an extended version of his excellent paper "How gullible are we?" (). Mercier shows that people are not stupid. They have good mechanisms of epistemic vigilance.

    Do we notice our qualia and react to them? If so, why not cut them out and react directly to things in the world? And if we don't, why do they matter?

    (3/3) And he still disagrees with Farrell & Weisberg's comments: "While Farrell and Weisberg are right to say that I am wrong, they both miss the fundamental reason why I am wrong." Looks like Farrell & Weisberg are right to disagree, but they disagree for the wrong reasons!

    (2/3) But it turns out Gottlieb changed his mind: "Shortly after publication ... my credence in its core thesis ... began to drop. ... I now think my central conclusion is wrong. The dispute is not verbal. " The discussion is still interesting though.

    (1/3) Nice symposium. The symposium discusses Gottlieb's view that the debate between higher-order and first-order theories of consciousness is simply a verbal dispute: it just depends on how one interpret "what-it's-like".

    More on "no-cognition" paradigms in the scientific study of consciousness, following Ned Block's critique of "no-report" paradigms. Here's a comment by & (). And 's answer ().
