Overview

Argues for a process-based understanding of mind, indicating that consciousness is a complex interaction of various neurocognitive processes.

Key Points

  • The aim is to challenge the traditional view of consciousness as a single entity by proposing it as a construct of multiple processes.
  • Argues against the unified concept of consciousness.
  • Proposes a framework based on predictive processing and contemporary neuroscience.
  • Analyzes various neurocognitive processes such as attention and memory integration.
  • Consciousness is shown to be a linguistic construct rather than a distinct phenomenon.
  • The proposed framework challenges the assumption of consciousness as a natural kind.
  • It reframes long-standing issues like the explanatory gap in the study of mind.
