TLDR
An auditory paradigm that evaluates cerebral responses to violations of temporal regularities that are either local in time or global across several seconds suggests that the presence of the global effect is a signature of conscious processing, although it can be absent in conscious subjects who are not aware of theglobal auditory regularities.
