The researchers whose trusted networks rank it highest, strongest advocate first. Every researcher gets a different order.

Affective consciousness: Core emotional feelings in animals and humans. (2005, background): “…currently important to specify the key components (e.g., specific neuroanatomies and neurochemistries ) that are necessary for emergence of specific types of affective feelings (Panksepp & Harro, 2004) so that one can gradually aspire to clarify the comprehensive system properties (Edelman, 2004).”
Body Awareness: Construct and Self-Report Measures (2009, background): “Embodiment is understood as the felt sense of being localized within one’s physical body [54] and references the lived immediate experience of one’s own body [55,56].”
Bio-behavioral Synchrony: A Model for Integrating Biological and Microsocial Behavioral Processes in the Study of Parenting (2012, background): “…is the hallmark of the bio-behavioral synchrony process and may provide one avenue to address the major controversy in the neuroscience of consciousness—the formation of a “brain-based epistemology” that links the subjective world with objective markers of neural activity (Edelman, 2004).”
Oxytocin and social affiliation in humans. (2012, background): “Recent perspectives in neuroscience have underscored synchrony as the mechanism which underlies consciousness and supports the brain's capacity to form a unitary event out of the simultaneous activity of discrete brain regions (Edelman, 2004; 2006; Damasio, 2003),”
