Carving Nature at Its Joints: A Comparison of CEMI Field Theory with Integrated Information Theory and Global Workspace Theory by Johnjoe McFadden

“…I go on to argue that, though the cemi field theory shares features of both integrated information theory and global workspace theory, it is more successful at carving nature at its conventionally accepted joints between conscious and nonconscious systems, and is thereby a more successful theory of consciousness.…”

Representation and Extension in Consciousness Studies by Zsuzsanna Kondor

“…In my argumentation I will rely on some earlier philosophical insights, such as those of Descartes, James, Wittgenstein and Merleau-Ponty, as well as research based on global workspace theory, and the conceptions of embodied and enacted cognition. …”

Information in Explaining Cognition: How to Evaluate It? by Nir Fresco

“…Subsequently, six desiderata are identified and defended based on cognitive scientific practices. The global workspace theory of consciousness is then used as a specific case study that arguably posits either five or six corresponding features of information.…”

Further evidence and theoretical framework for a subliminal sensory buffer store (SSBS) by Pang, DKF, Elntib, S

“…SSBS supports a direct prediction made by the global workspace theory of consciousness (GWT) and has implications on discussions about conscious overflow and the problem of the criterion. …”

Mind the Gap: An attempt to bridge computational and neuroscientific approaches to study creativity by Geraint eWiggins, Joydeep eBhattacharya

“…In this article, we discuss a computational framework for creativity based on Baars' global workspace theory (Baars, 1988) enhanced with mechanisms based on information theory. …”

General and specific consciousness: a first-order representationalist approach by Neil eMehta, Neil eMehta, George A Mashour

“…We argue that recent data support first-order representationalism over biological theory, higher-order representationalism, recurrent processing theory, information integration theory, and global workspace theory.…”

Strongly masked content retained in memory made accessible through repetition by Damian K. F. Pang, Stamatis Elntib

“…Our findings are congruent with theories of consciousness that are based on an integration of subliminal information and support theoretical predictions based on the global workspace theory of consciousness, especially the existence of an implicit iconic memory buffer store.…”

Sleep neuroimaging and models of consciousness by Enzo eTagliazucchi, Marion eBehrens, Helmut eLaufs

“…In this review we focus on recent functional Magnetic Resonance Imaging (fMRI) studies of spontaneous activity during sleep and their relationship with theoretical models for human consciousness generation, considering the global workspace theory, the information integration theory and the dynamical core hypothesis. …”

An active inference model of conscious access: How cognitive action selection reconciles the results of report and no-report paradigms by Christopher J. Whyte, Jakob Hohwy, Ryan Smith

“…Cognitive theories of consciousness, such as global workspace theory and higher-order theories, posit that frontoparietal circuits play a crucial role in conscious access. …”

Social Neuro AI: Social Interaction as the “Dark Matter” of AI by Samuele Bolotta, Guillaume Dumas

“…First, neuroscientific theories of cognitive architecture, such as the global workspace theory and the attention schema theory, can enhance biological plausibility and help us understand how we could bridge individual and social theories of intelligence. …”

How does the extraction of local and global auditory regularities vary with context? by Sébastien Marti, Louis Thibault, Stanislas Dehaene

“…MEG recordings revealed that early brain responses (100-130 ms) to violations of short range regularities were unaffected by visual distraction and driven essentially by local transitional probabilities. Based on global workspace theory and prior results, we expected that visual distraction would eliminate the long range global effect, but unexpectedly, we found the contrary, i.e. late brain responses (300-600 ms) to violations of long range regularities on audio-visual trials but not on auditory only trials. …”

What makes us conscious of our own agency? And why the conscious versus unconscious representation distinction matters by Glenn eCarruthers

“…Although these two single function views seem like dead ends, multifunction hypotheses such as the global workspace theory remain live options which we should consider. …”
