Our visual world is abound with distinct stimuli, which have different semantics and valance and from these we select only those stimuli which are meaningful and relevant to us. The cognitive process specifically involved in this selection is known as attention. Whereas, Consciousness can be understood as the state of arousal in which persons or animals are mentally receptive to signals coming from the surrounding environment (Pacherie, 2004). Baars (1997) have mentioned several contents which can be included as construct of consciousness like perception of the world around us, visual images, talking silently to ourselves, memory of events in our life, our beliefs about the world, day to day activities and attitude towards others.
