| How does a person's consciousness of an external stimulus come into being? It is mainly determined by the quality of external stimuli and the internal individual consciousness sensitivity.In the face of the same hidden external stimuli and rules,some people come to consciousness from unconscious more quickly and more quantitatively.Other people come to consciousness from unconscious less quickly and less quantitatively,which is the problem of consciousness sensitivity.This study defines consciousness sensitivity as that to the hidden external stimuli and rules,how quickly,how easily and how much is it possible for people to rise from unconsciousness to consciousness.It can be seen that consciousness sensitivity is essentially the problem of individual consciousness differences.Are there individual differences in the human consciousness sensitivity on outside stimuli? Does consciousness sensitivity have stability and universality? What personality factors affect it? Exploring these problems can reveal the mechanism of consciousness sensitivity,provide a basis for developing universal consciousness training in higher education,and improve people's learning quality and problem-solving ability.This study found that there are three types of classical consciousness tasks such as perceptual consciousness,implicit sequence learning consciousness and the implicit artificial grammar consciousness paradigms,which contain the process that unconscious stimulation and rules rise up to consciousness and whose consciousness is the performance and index of the consciousness sensitivity.Therefore,this study uses these three types of consciousness task paradigms to explore the stability of consciousness sensitivity through three studies.The first study was trying to prove that there are significant individual differences in consciousness of some kinds of consciousness tasks,which could indicated that consciousness sensitivity exists and has significance.Then,it examined the correlation between various kinds of consciousness and stable individual factors,which could indicated that consciousness sensitivity is stable.Experiment 1 used 2(resting state position: pre task vs.Post task)× 2(SOA:850ms vs.1350ms)mixed design,and found that:(1)the improved conscious computing methods were effective.In SOA=850ms group onlythe correct number of inclusion task was greater than random.In SOA=1350ms only the incorrect number of exclusion tasks was larger than random.There were significant individual differences in the two kinds of objective consciousness of the two groups,and there were also significant individual differences in all kinds of subjective consciousness.(2)the big five personality was universally related to the two groups of consciousness.(3)It was found for the first time that the individual differences of consciousness could be predicted by spontaneous brain activity in resting state.In the two groups the correct number of inclusion task was positively related to the sense and motor consciousness and the cognitive control brain areas,but was negatively related to the movement and implicit knowledge brain areas.The incorrect number of exclusion tasks was the opposite.These results indicates that the brain mechanisms of the two indexes are totally different.Subjective consciousnesses was related to a wide range of brain regions: from guessing to intuition to fluency to regular and memory,brain regions positively related to them were from movement,visual perception and implicit knowledge areas to conscious and cognitive control areas.Experiment 2 adopted the mixed design of 2(consciousness types:objective consciousness vs.subjective consciousness)×3(stimulus material: arrow vs.sadness and happy expressions vs.anger and happy expressions)to investigate the individual difference of perceptual consciousness.The results were as follows:(1)the d'value of the objective consciousness of arrowhead perception was not more than 0,and the d' value of anger/happy expression perception and sad / happy expression perception was greater than 0.However,there were significant individual differences in the objective and subjective consciousness of the three groups.(2)there was a general correlation between the big five personality and the consciousness of anger/happy expression.The above results show that the sensitivity of consciousness exists and has stability.Based on the first research,research two investigated whether the consciousness of three types of consciousness tasks had homogeneity,which indicated that consciousness sensitivity had high order stability--universality.The experiment adopted 3(conscious tasks: implicit sequence learning consciousness,vs.implicit artificial grammar consciousness,vs.perception consciousness)× 2(resting state types: eyes closed vs.eyes open)design,and found:(1)improved consciousness calculation methods were effective.There are significant individual differences in the objective/subjective consciousness of the three types of consciousness tasks.There were many significant collinearities between thethree types of consciousness tasks,namely,homogeneity.Consciousness was homogeneity,unconsciousness was different.(2)eyes closed /open spontaneous brain activity and sensitivity of it,namely,the difference between them,could predict the objective and subjective consciousness of three types of consciousness tasks,and the prediction of spontaneous brain sensitivity was the most common.(3)there was no objective consciousness common brain areas,but for the subjective consciousness there were three common brain areas such as the left angular gyrus,left transverse temporal gyrus and left insula,which indicated there was homogeneity on the brain mechanism.(4)the above results proved that the sensitivity of consciousness has high order stability,that is universality.On the basis of the first two researches,research three investigated the influencing individual factors of conscious sensitivity,and tried to prove that all kinds of consciousness sensitivity have common individual influencing factors,such as central executive function and personality,which in turn prove the universality of consciousness sensitivity.The sub study 1 used 3(lateralization: left vs.right vs.central)× 3(central sub components of executive function: refresh vs.inhibit vs.conversion)within subjects design,and found that:(1)refresh and suppression function were negatively related to objective and subjective consciousness of the two kinds of implicit learning,and were both negatively and positively related to objective and subjective consciousness of perception(2)conversion function was positively related to consciousness of two types of implicit learning,but negatively related to the unconsciousness,and was not related to perception consciousness.The sub study 2 measured the big five personality,and found that(1)there was a great deal of correlation between the sub dimensions of the five dimensions and the objective/subjective consciousness of the three types of consciousness tasks.(2)there was no common personality related to the objective consciousness of the three types of consciousness tasks.(3)however,there were some common personalities related to the subjective consciousness of the three types of consciousness tasks such as A3 and E4,and the more sub dimensions were related to the consciousness of the two types of conscious tasks.The above results show that consciousness sensitivity has some common individual influence factors,and has high order stability--universality.Through the above three series of research:(1)the improved objective and subjective measurements were effective,which provided some effective tools for studying thesensitivity of consciousness.(2)there were individual differences in the sensitivity of the three types of consciousness,and could be predicted by the resting state of spontaneous brain activity,central executive function and personality.It provides theoretical basis and technical direction for higher education to teach students in accordance with their aptitude on the basis of individual differences in consciousness sensitivities.(3)consciousness sensitivity is a stability and universality individual characteristic.The objective/subjective consciousness sensitivity of the three types of consciousness tasks were collinear,and had some common related brain areas and personalities.It provided a direction for the development of universal consciousness sensitivity training in higher education.The consciousness was homogeneity,the unconscious was different.(4)the sensitivity of spontaneous brain activity,namely the difference between eyes open and eyes closed,is a good index to predict three kinds of conscious sensitivity.It has further proved that consciousness sensitivity has good validity. |
