ABSTRACT
The relationship between mind and matter has dominated many struggles in the history of psychology. All psychological theories, including those on Situation Awareness (SA), implicitly or explicitly choose a position with respect to this relationship. Virtually all theories of SA rely on the idea of correspondence - a match, or correlation, between an external world of stimuli and an internal world of mental representations. Such theories are dualist because they separate the notion of an outside, 'objective' material world, and a subjective, mental mirror or simile of that world.
