Neural Mechanisms of Core Consciousness and Extended Consciousness

Damasio (1999) suggests that large portions of the cingulate cortex and its projections to almost all cortical regions are the crucial neural mechanism behind core consciousness’s generation of our sense of self. Extended consciousness depends on those neural mechanisms responsible for working memory and explicit memory (e.g., semantic and episodic memory) (Damasio & Meyer, 2009). This would include at least the prefrontal cortex, the anterior cingulate cortex, the parahippocampal region, and the hippocampal formation.
