Structuralism and Consciousness: The Two-Factor Interaction View

Watch a 21-minute conference talk from the Models of Consciousness Conferences exploring the experimental testing of consciousness theories through the lens of phenomenal structure and neural mechanisms. Examine the relationship between neural correlates of consciousness (NCC) and phenomenal structure as a means to evaluate different theories of consciousness (ToCs). Learn about the proposed two-factor interaction view that bridges one-factor and two-factor perspectives, suggesting that while mechanisms of phenomenal structure and consciousness are distinct, consciousness mechanisms influence content structure. Discover proposed experimental designs using population code structure analysis and their implications for major theories of consciousness.
