Moving Forward on the Problem of Consciousness - David Chalmers consc.net 4 facts
claimThe facts about consciousness do not follow from the facts about the structure and functioning of neural processes, provided that type-A materialism is rejected.
perspectiveDavid Chalmers argues that identifying consciousness with a neural process to derive facts about consciousness is 'cheating' because it builds the identity into the premise to derive the identity.
claimBruce MacLennan aims to develop a theory explaining the connection between neural processes and consciousness.
claimBruce MacLennan's theory posits an irreducible phenomenal aspect associated with neural processes, resulting in a property dualism with a neurodynamical focus.
Sleep Deprivation, Sleep Disorders, and Chronic Disease - CDC cdc.gov Aug 31, 2023 2 facts
claimSleep is a vital process for brain restoration and regulation rather than a passive state, and inadequate sleep disrupts critical neural processes and impairs cognitive functioning.
claimInsufficient sleep contributes to the onset or worsening of mental health issues, brain disorders, and chronic diseases by disrupting critical neural processes.
Non-Reductive Physicalism - Theories of Consciousness theoriesofconsciousness.com 1 fact
claimAlan Sanfey's research on decision-making demonstrates that psychological constructs such as preferences and beliefs emerge from neural processes while maintaining explanatory autonomy.
Consciousness in Artificial Intelligence? A Framework for Classifying ... arxiv.org Nov 20, 2025 1 fact
claimPiccinini (2013) suggests that temporal coding via spike timing is critically important for neural processes, such as in the sense of smell, beyond just spike rates.

Resolving the evolutionary paradox of consciousness link.springer.com Apr 1, 2024 1 fact
claimNeural processes correlate with sensations of particular characters, though these sensations possess no intrinsic causal power or intrinsic valence.
Self-awareness, self-regulation, and self-transcendence (S-ART) frontiersin.org 1 fact
claimUnderstanding the intentions of another person likely recruits neural processes underlying insight into oneself.
Hard problem of consciousness - Wikipedia en.wikipedia.org 1 fact
claimThe 'easy problems' of consciousness are amenable to reductive inquiry and involve the mechanistic analysis of neural processes that accompany behavior, such as sensory data processing, the neural basis of thought, and emotion.
Global workspace theory - Wikipedia en.wikipedia.org 1 fact
claimGlobal workspace theory models consciousness and higher-order cognition as emerging from competition and integrated flows of information across widespread, parallel neural processes.
