claimScientific interactionists/dualists attempt to reconcile the behavior of subatomic particles of energy at the quantum level with the aggregation of matter described by the theory of general relativity to explain the emergence of consciousness.
claimThe scientific interactionist/dualist approach maintains a materialist ontology while employing a dualist process, focusing on how consciousness emerges from the interaction of thinking substances converted into subatomic particles with phenomenal properties like mass, charge, and spin.
referenceSubatomic particles at the quantum level are observed to operate differently, and in many instances in opposition, to aggregate matter.
claimOne theoretical framework for consciousness, derived from post-materialist logic, suggests that subatomic particles of energy containing information and memory decombine from the zero-point field of the quantum realm to give rise to individuating consciousness, cosmopsychism, and panspiritism.
