ABSTRACT
The research reviewed in previous chapters establishes neuroanatomical correlates for particular perceptual, affective and cognitive processes that happen also to be conscious. This approach, by far the most prevalent in neuroscience, identifies neuroanatomical correlates for specific processes, hoping thereby to capture consciousness in the process by capturing it in the processes. Another approach that works from general properties of consciousness to neural correlates for those properties has also gained considerable traction in the neuroscience community. This approach, which provides neural models of consciousness and conscious properties, is this chapter’s topic.
