Document Summary
What does each one mean: our subjective experience of the world and our mind. What is the difference between minimal consciousness, full consciousness, and self- Selectivity: the capacity to include some objects but not others. Subjectivity: 2 people experience the same event yet feel differently about it. The fundamental difficulty we have is perceiving the consciousness of others. People judge minds according to the capacity for experience and agency. Dichotic listening: wearing headphones and hearing different messages. Minimal: low level of sensory awareness and responsiveness that occurs when the mind inputs sensations and may output behavior. Full: consciousness in which you know and are able to report your mental state. Self: a person"s attention is drawn to the self as an object. Mental control: the attempt to change conscious states of mind. Thought suppression: the conscious avoidance of a thought. How is freud"s dynamic unconscious different from the modern idea of the cognitive.
