Conscious and Unconscious Memory (IMAGE)
Caption
Subjects were shown several pictures of scenes (upper left) and asked whether they occurred indoors or outdoors. Using fMRI, activity was monitored in the parahippocampal cortex (top right), while performing the task. Scenes that were later consciously remembered were associated with stronger overall activity during initial exposure, an index of better conscious memory. There was a larger difference between novel and repeated conditions, a neural signature of non-conscious memory.
