Introduction to Psychology and its Methods - Lesson 3 - ConsciousnessIntroduction:
Psychology began as a science of consciousness. Behaviorists argued about alienating.
Subjective awareness of ourself and our environment —> consciousness
An awareness of the sensations, thoughts, and feelings that one is attending to at a given
moment.
Consciousness: one’s subjective experience of the world, resulting from brain activity.
The brain and mind are inseparable, each of us experiences consciousness personally (the
explanation gap), we cannot know if two people experience the world in exactly the same way.
For example, we don’t learn colors by their hex codes, but by experiences. (Qualia)
Consciousness arises as a function of which brain circuits are active (global workspace model )
After the fact explanations: unconscious acts that the conscious mind struggles to explain.
Attention refers to the process that enables you to focus selectively on some things and avoid
focusing on others.
