[Toward a taxonomy of unconscious perceptual visual processes: from the patient to the healthy subject].
Our conscious perception is not exhaustive of all the processes at work when we face a visual scene. In the light of a recent theoretical model, - the conscious global workspace model -, which states the necessary and sufficient conditions for a perceptual representation to reach conscious content, we propose here a taxonomy, which distinguishes between four types of unconscious visual processes. For each of them, we will draw close links between several neurological syndromes and experimental visual paradigms, which can be used in the laboratory with normal subjects.
