Consciousness and awareness are deeply linked as consciousness is often defined as including awareness [1], [2], or as a state encompassing it [3]. Theoretical frameworks frequently contrast or equate the two, such as Chalmers' structural coherence principle [4] or Graziano's definition of consciousness as awareness of awareness [5], while others distinguish them to better explain cognitive functions [6], [7], [8].
