Speech perception - toward understanding of consciousness

This paper presents a project executing within the framework of COST Action BM0605: Consciousness: A Trans-disciplinary, Integrated Approach. The research is centred on neurophysiological experiments to image brain function in diseases in which the phenomenon of consciousness plays an important role. The fundamental problem studied in this project will be an investigation of the relation between consciousness and speech perception. The study will be conducted using electroencephalographic methods on subjects with Auditory Processing Disorders.
