More recently, however, scientists have come to view these vascular changes as secondary to underlying neural events.

Libet concluded from this that the subjective experience was occurring before the neural events which bought it about.

For example,substance and bundle (or event ) dualism assert that the neural events cause the perceptual events.

Similarly, it may appear obvious that apart from neural events there are also mental conditions.

This process seemed to be best accountable in a mental sphere that appears to emerge from the neural events, namely, the conscious mental field.

In order for something to be considered "conscious," there must be enough correlating neural events that go with it (e.g. memory formation).

We now turn to the question of the relation of mental and neural events, and first to propositions to the effect that they are indeed identical.

It is a neural event, a feeling as palpable as any recorded by the five senses.

PET and fMRI measure changes in the composition of blood near a neural event.

"Even if we presume dualism, you've got to admit that intellectual processes reflect neural events in some way."
