claimThe dual-aspect approaches of Pauli-Jung, Eddington-Wheeler, and Bohm-Hiley propose a tripartite reality model consisting of a psychophysically neutral domain, a mental domain, and a physical domain.
claimA consistent framework for the interplay of mental and physical domains of reality using Roger Penrose's mathematical Platonism has not yet been established.
claimDual-aspect quantum approaches to consciousness conceptualize mind-matter correlations as the splitting of a holistic, psychophysically neutral domain of reality into mental and physical aspects, inspired by entanglement-induced nonlocal correlations.
claimWithin panpsychist frameworks, human consciousness is considered a special case within the mental domain, analogous to the brain being a special case within the material domain.
claimPanpsychism (or panexperientialism) differs from dual-aspect monism because it lacks a psychophysically neutral domain of reality and instead posits a dualistic approach where mental and physical domains are primordially coupled.
claimThe dual-aspect approaches of Pauli-Jung, Eddington-Wheeler, and Bohm-Hiley utilize the concept of meaning to interpret correlations between the mental, physical, and psychophysically neutral domains of reality.

claimWolfgang Pauli and Carl Jung proposed a dual-aspect approach that draws a parallel between the epistemic/ontic distinction in material reality (quantum theory) and the epistemic/ontic distinction in mental domains.
claimHans Primas conceives the tensed time of the mental domain as quantum-correlated with the parameter time of physics via 'time-entanglement', resulting from a symmetry breaking of a timeless, psychophysically neutral level of reality.
claimHenry Stapp's approach suggests an expanded ontological basis for both the mental domain and status-quo quantum theory as a theory of matter without essentially changing the formalism of quantum theory, though it lacks empirical confirmation.
claimStrong reductionism claims that all mental states and properties can be reduced to the material domain (materialism) or to physics (physicalism), asserting that exploring the material domain is both necessary and sufficient to understand the mental domain.
claimThe proposal by David Bohm and Basil Hiley regarding information-based dual-aspect approaches provides a conceptual framework but lacks detailed explanations concerning the mental domain.

claimA key distinction between the two primary classes of dual-aspect thinking is how the psychophysically neutral domain relates to the mental and physical domains.
claimDual-aspect approaches in the philosophy of mind posit that mental and material domains are manifestations of a single, underlying reality where mind and matter are not separated.
