Ears, Brains and Seats

Speaking of brains and our human response to various stimuli -- computer aided or not -- what would the "seat of the pants" part of the pilots' brains be experiencing?

In this type of stall, would they feel increased positive G's which would then seem to decrease (or even go negative) as they rapidly descend in the continued stall? I gather the BEA will provide a graph with G forces plotted with a full report of FDR data, but no doubt it could influence the pilot's actions or lack thereof.
