Creative Consciousness - Chapter 6
30
AIM : Three biologically based dimensions of consciousness - Activation, Input, and Mode.
alphawaves : pattern of brain activity when one is relaxed and drowsy; slower, higher energy waves than beta waves.
attention : limited capacity to process information that is under conscious control.
awareness : monitoring of information from the environment and from one's own thoughts.
betawaves : pattern of brain activity when one is awake; a rapid, low-energy wave.
circadianrhythms : variations in physiological processes that cycle within approximately a 24-hour period, including the sleep-wake cycle.
coma : state of consciousness in which the eyes are closed and the person is unresponsive and unarousable.
consciousness : awareness of one's surroundings and of whats in one's mind at a given moment; includes aspects of being awake and aware.
deltawaves : pattern of brain activity that dominates Stage 3 sleep; higher energy than theta wave.
depressants : substances that decrease or slow down central nervous system activity.
dreams : images, thoughts, and feelings experienced during sleep.
endocannabinoids : natural, marijuana-like substances produced by the body.
hallucinogens : substances that create distorted perceptions of reality ranging from mild to extreme.
hypersomnia : sleep difficulty characterized by sleeping more than 10 hours a day for 2 weeks or more; includes urge to nap during inappropriate times.
hypnosis : state characterized by focused attention, suggestibility, absorption, lack of voluntary control over behavior, and suspension of critical facilities; may be therapeutic.
insomnia : sleep difficulty characterized by difficulty falling and staying asleep, as well as not feeling rested.
latent : Freud's deeper, unconscious level of dreams; their meaning is found at this level.
manifest : Freud's surface level of dreams, recalled upon waking.
meditation : practices used to calm the mind, stabilize concentration, focus attention, and enhance awareness of present moment.
mindfulness : heightened awareness of present moment, whether of events in one's environment or in one's own mind.
narcolepsy : sleep disorder characterized by excessive daytime sleepiness and weakness in facial and limb muscles.
nonREM : form of sleep with few eye movements, which are slow rather than fast.
psychoactivedrugs : naturally occurring or synthesized substances that, when taken into the body, reliably produce qualitative changes in conscious experience.
REM : quick movements of the eye that occur during sleep, thought to mark phases of dreaming.
selectiveattention : ability to focus awareness on specific features in the environment while ignoring others.
sleepapnea : sleep difficulty that results from temporary blockage of the air passage.
sleepwalking : sleep difficulty characterized by activities occurring during non-REM sleep that usually occur when one is awake.
stimulants : substances that activate the nervous system.
StroopEffect : delay in reaction time when color of words on a test and their meaning differ.
sustainedattention : ability to maintain focused awareness on a target or idea.
thetawaves : brain activity during Stage 1 sleep; slower, lower-energy waves than alpha waves.
vegetativestate : minimal consciousness in which the eyes might be open but the person is otherwise unresponsive.
wakefulness : degree of alertness reflecting whether a person is awake or asleep.
