#neuroscience adjective
- Anoetic — Lacking reflective consciousness, reason, or conceptual mental representation; pertaining to a pure sensory or primary affective state. In cognitive psychology and memory theories developed by Endel Tulving, the term describes the most elementary level of consciousness (anoetic consciousness), characteristic of organisms that live exclusively in the immediate present and react to perceptual stimuli without possessing the capacity to reflect upon their own mental states or memories.
