<h1 id="overview-of-cogitate">Overview of COGITATE</h1>
<p>What are the mechanisms that give rise to consciousness? This question has been the focus of extensive research, leading to the development of several prominent theories, including Global Neuronal Workspace Theory (GNWT) and Integrated Information Theory (IIT). Critically, however, the focus so far has been on testing each theory independently, gathering evidence for/against them separately, leaving open a crucial question: which theory has higher explanatory power when tested against each other directly?</p>
<p>COGITATE is a pioneering Open Science adversarial collaboration to bridge this gap and evaluate GNWT and IIT through two studies, named <a href="#experiment-1-conscious-perception">Experiment 1</a> (EXP1) and <a href="#experiment-2-video-game-engagement">Experiment 2</a> (EXP2). In these experiments, multimodal empirical tests are conducted on human volunteers, combining magneto-electroencephalography (M-EEG), functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) and invasive intracortical recordings (iEEG) along with behavioral and eye tracking measurements. The reason for this approach is to maximize the sensitivity and specificity to the tests of each hypothesis, while accounting for trade-offs between temporal and spatial specificity inherent to the currently available methods in human neuroscience.</p>

<h2 id="goals">Goals</h2>
<p>The aim of the COGITATE project is to accelerate research on consciousness and establish a groundbreaking model for scientific practices in cognitive neuroscience at large, by demonstrating the impact of team-based adversary research and open data to address some of the major riddles in the field, much like established practices in other fields of inquiry such as physics and genomics.</p>
