Consciousness and Re-representation
- Attention plays an important role in re-representation; that is, the conscious knowledge of an experience and introspection.
- Subjects cannot report—not even to themselves—experiences that aren’t re-represented.
- However, conscious experience does occur even without re-representation: For example, Dreams lack re-representation, even if they are experienced in consciousness.
- This gap between reportability and consciousness has led to “no-report paradigms” in neuroscience.
