Abstract

COMMENTARY ON: LaBerge, D.. Attention, awareness, and the triangular circuit. Consciousness and Cognition, 6, 149-181. ABSTRACT: LaBerge proposes that underlying attention and self-awareness is a triangular circuit involving interconnected posterior cortical, thalamic and prefrontal neural ensembles. While the target paper makes only passing reference to it, the reticular nucleus of the thalamus is an integral part of the triangular circuit he posits. Indeed, it is essential to a complete understanding of his model.
