referenceM. Shanahan explored cognition and consciousness in the space of possible minds in the 2010 book 'Embodiment and the Inner Life'.
claimScholars working in robot consciousness suggest that an intermediate level of processing—including sensory-motor patterns, information, cognition, and global workspace—serves as a possible explanation for consciousness.
claimMany scholars incorrectly assume that consciousness will emerge automatically once practical issues regarding cognition and intelligence are solved, or that the problem of consciousness is a false problem that will evaporate.
Hard problem of consciousness - Wikipedia en.wikipedia.org 3 facts
claimThe functionalist view in cognitive science holds that the mind is an information processing system, and that cognition and consciousness are forms of computation.
quoteA. C. Elitzur argued: "While [GWT] does not address the 'hard problem', namely, the very nature of consciousness, it constrains any theory that attempts to do so and provides important insights into the relation between consciousness and cognition."
referenceThe article 'Towards a cognitive neuroscience of consciousness: basic evidence and a workspace framework' was published in the journal Cognition, volume 79, issues 1–2, pages 1–37, in 2001.

referenceThe Neuron Doctrine posits that the activity of action potentials is the only aspect of brain activity necessary to explain cognition and consciousness.
claimProponents of the enactive view of consciousness, such as Varela (1991), claim that consciousness and cognition in living beings arise from the capability of enacting the world where environments and organisms are codetermined and cotransformed, rather than from specific informational processes or computational organization.
The development of consciousness from an evolutionary perspective academia.edu 1 fact
referenceTheories of consciousness proposed by Edelman, Baars, Rosenfield, Dennett, and Varela share the common idea that a biological and psychological approach to consciousness is necessary to understand cognition.

perspectiveHameroff, S. (2022) argued in 'Consciousness, cognition and the neuronal cytoskeleton-a new paradigm needed in neuroscience' (Front. Mol. Neurosci.) that a new paradigm is required in neuroscience to account for consciousness and cognition in relation to the neuronal cytoskeleton.
Global workspace theory - Wikipedia en.wikipedia.org 1 fact
claimA. C. Elitzur's 1997 paper abstract argued that while the global workspace theory does not address the hard problem of consciousness, it constrains theories that do and provides insights into the relationship between consciousness and cognition.
Consciousness and Cognitive Sciences journal-psychoanalysis.eu 1 fact
claimCognitive science has preferred functionalism over the last 20 years, utilizing a strategy that replaces the link between cognition and consciousness with the link between cognition and its corresponding functional or intentional states.

What a Contest of Consciousness Theories Really Proved quantamagazine.org 1 fact
claimGlobal Neuronal Workspace Theory (GNWT) posits that consciousness requires the participation of brain areas involved in cognition ("thinking"), whereas Integrated Information Theory (IIT) posits that consciousness depends on brain areas involved in perception ("sensing").
The New Field of Network Physiology: Building the Human ... frontiersin.org 1 fact
claimHaving structurally intact and functioning systems is insufficient to maintain health; coordinated network interactions among systems and sub-systems are required to generate distinct physiologic states and behaviors at the organism level, such as wake, sleep and sleep stages, rest and exercise, stress and anxiety, cognition, consciousness, and unconsciousness.
The Hard Problem of Consciousness | Springer Nature Link link.springer.com 1 fact
claimDavid Chalmers defines 'easy problems' of consciousness as questions concerning the structure and function of cognition, or the psychological aspects of consciousness in terms of awareness and information processing, which are neurophysiologically explainable without changing the underlying metaphysical framework.
