Distinct distributed brain networks dissociate self-generated mental states

2025-02-27

Abstract excerpt

Human cognition relies on two modes: a perceptually-coupled mode where mental states are driven by sensory input and a perceptually-decoupled mode featuring self-generated mental content. Past work suggests that imagined states are supported by the reinstatement of activity in sensory cortex, but transmodal systems within the canonical default network are also implicated in mind-wandering, recollection, and imagin...
