The concepts of consciousness and complementarity are linked because the latter is frequently utilized as a theoretical framework or metaphor in discussions regarding the nature of consciousness {fact:2, fact:3}. Furthermore, some approaches to consciousness generalize the quantum principle of complementarity to bridge the gap between mental and material domains {fact:1, fact:4}.

claimThe quantum theory concepts of complementarity and entanglement are frequently utilized in discussions regarding the nature of consciousness.
referenceSome approaches to consciousness generalize quantum theory beyond quantum physics to apply concepts like complementarity and entanglement to both mental and material domains, conceiving the relationship between the two as dual aspects of one underlying reality.
claimSome accounts of quantum theory in relation to consciousness use quantum terms like entanglement, superposition, collapse, and complementarity purely as metaphors without precise definitions or specific applications, which the author of the Stanford Encyclopedia of Philosophy entry on Quantum Approaches to Consciousness argues does not represent scientific progress.
