Five patients of Group I (Patients 1 5), showed only reflexive behaviour and were diagnosed as vegetative state during the four behavioural evaluations.
We suggest that the central nervous system's rapid detection and response capabilities are restricted to reflexive behaviour, with conscious awareness of a fall being prioritized less.
The reasoning process for each agent can vary from a reflexive behaviour, in which the agent responds directly to the sensor data to a reflective behaviour in which the agents reasons about its goals and alternatives before making a change to the environment.
Scientifically, this reflexive behaviour is studied with prosaccade tasks.
Five subjects from this group showed only reflexive behaviour, remained unresponsive to the environment during the whole observation period and were diagnosed in a vegetative state (Supplementary Table 1).

Taken together, the above results demonstrate that the escape responses used in the avoidance learning paradigms for fish involve sub-forebrain regions associated with instinctive and/or reflexive behaviours.
The heterogeneous MCS group is subcategorized in MCS when patients only show non-reflexive behaviour such as eye tracking, orientation to pain or contingent behaviour to specific stimuli (e.g. smiling exclusively in the presence of a family member) and MCS+ when a reproducible (albeit often inconsistent) response to command can be observed [141].
In contrast, in minimally conscious patients, who showed fluctuating signs of non-reflexive behaviour, transcranial magnetic stimulation invariably triggered complex activations that sequentially involved distant cortical areas ipsi- and contralateral to the site of stimulation, similar to activations we recorded in locked-in, conscious patients.
