A paper titled for this concept argues that “functional explanations” can account for phenomena like reportability, but not this concept. Reportability defines the “access” type of this concept, which Ned Block distinguished from its “phenomenal” type. Joseph Levine argued that theories of this concept struggle to explain subjectivity due to the explanatory gap. The phi phenomenon is evidence for the theory that this concept arises from many sources of input and systems of interpretation, called the multiple drafts model. David Chalmers argued that science cannot even attempt to explain why this concept exists, which is its “hard problem.” Philosophical zombies lack this concept. For 10 points, a book by Daniel Dennett “explains” what concept, which is the mental awareness of one’s experience? ■END■
ANSWER: consciousness [accept hard problem of consciousness; accept phenomenal consciousness or access consciousness; accept Consciousness Explained; accept “Facing Up to the Problem of Consciousness”]
