Theories Of Consciousness (Hebrew)
Pasternak Anton
Description
Final assignment of the course: "Theories Of Consciousness".
Here I reviewed and compared leading theories of consciousness, such as higher-order, representational, and integrated-information approaches. I highlighted the strengths of each but also pointed out their weaknesses, especially when it comes to explaining subjective experience. My opinion is that no single theory is enough on its own, and I argued for a pluralistic approach that combines theory with targeted experiments to move the field forward.
