- This paper was the first to find that we can learn associations between unconsciously perceived stimuli from different sensory modalities. This is important, as it conflicts with the dominant theories in the field. In the words of one of the anonymous reviewers: “This is an exceptional article, both experimentally and theoretically, one of the most useful, penetrating, and important pieces of work on consciousness I have read in a while… It should upend a good deal of work in empirical and theoretical consciousness studies” (contact for confirmation: Tamara Swaab (swaab@ucdavis.edu)).
