Understanding the distinction between conscious and unconscious cognition remains a priority in psychology and neuroscience. A comprehensive neurocognitive account of conscious awareness will not be possible without a sound framework to isolate and understand unconscious information processing. Here, we provide a brain-based framework that allows the identification of unconscious processes, even with null effects on behaviour.
Keywords: computational models; conscious awareness; machine learning; memory; neuroimaging; pattern analyses; unconscious processes; visual cognition.
