TY - JOUR PY - 2014// TI - Even "unconscious thought" is influenced by attentional mechanisms JO - Behavioral and brain sciences A1 - Srinivasan, Narayanan A1 - Mukherjee, Sumitava SP - 40 EP - 41 VL - 37 IS - 1 N2 - In this commentary, we focus on the role of attentional mechanisms in unconscious thought. We argue that even distracted or unconscious thought is capacity limited and differences in scope of attention influence processing during unconscious thought. Attention also would influence processes at different stages in the proposed lens model. We conclude that there is a clear need to understand the role of attention to better understand conscious or unconscious thought.
