Consciousness

Seeing activity in the temporal cortex in response to hearing once name would be indication of what conscious state?

Vegetative State or Minimally Conscious State

A GOOD DIAGNOSTIC TOOL?? WHY?

Change blindness vs. awareness

QUESTION WHO WOULD YOU DETERMINE IF A PERSON IS IN A LOCKED IN STATE VS A VEGETATIVE STATE? A person in a vegetative state can only detect local changes while a person in locked in syndrome can detect both local and global changes

QUESTION WHAT IS THE MAIN DIFFERENCE BETWEEN A PATIENT THAT IS BRAIN DEAD AND PATIENT THAT IS IN A COMA? Someone that are brain-dead does not have any electrical responses such as reflexes
