Investigating consciousness, this study contrasts information processing theories in cognitive neurosciences. It suggests complementing the search for neural correlates with computational correlates of consciousness.

Area of Science:

  • Cognitive Neuroscience
  • Neuroscience
  • Philosophy of Mind

Background:

  • Recent surge in interest regarding the nature of consciousness within cognitive neurosciences.
  • Prevalence of theories explaining consciousness through brain's information processing mechanisms.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To survey and contrast existing information processing models of consciousness.
  • To delineate various notions of consciousness that these models aim to explain.
  • To map the conceptual landscape of how theories explain consciousness.

Main Methods:

  • Conceptual analysis and comparison of prominent consciousness theories.
  • Categorization of theories based on their explanatory approaches.
  • Situating representative models within a defined conceptual framework.

Main Results:

  • Identification of diverse theoretical approaches to consciousness.
  • Clarification of the specific aspects of consciousness addressed by different models.
  • A conceptual landscape illustrating the relationships between theories.

Conclusions:

  • Theories of consciousness predominantly focus on information processing.
  • A comprehensive understanding requires considering multiple facets of consciousness.
  • Future research should integrate the search for neural and computational correlates of consciousness.
