Significance Although emotions, or feelings, are the most significant events in our lives, there has been relatively little contact between theories of emotion and emerging consciousness cognitive science. In this paper we challenge conventional view, which argues that emotions innately programmed subcortical circuits, propose instead higher-order states instantiated cortical circuits. What differs emotional nonemotional experiences, argue, is not one originates subcortically other...

In fact this issue received attention cognitive scientists still use meaningless phrases like ‘C-fiber firing’ ‘neuronal activity’ when theorizing the relation mind to brain. To date theorists do discuss they usually so in context making some other argument with result being that any discussion are distinct en passant flavor. light it is goal mine make...
The question at the center of recent growing literature on cognitive phenomenology is this: In consciously thinking P, there thereby any phenomenology?In this paper we will present two arguments that "yes" answers to follow from Higher-Order Thought (HOT) theory consciousness, especially version articulated and defended by David Rosenthal.The first, general argument, aims show HOT all cognitive.The second, central conscious thoughts have phenomenology.

Critics have often misunderstood the higher-order theory (HOT) of consciousness. Here we clarify its position on several issues, and distinguish it from other views such as global workspace (GWT) early sensory models, first-order local recurrency theory. The criticism that HOT overintellectualizes conscious experience is inaccurate because in reality assumes minimal cognitive functions for consciousness; this sense an intermediate between GWT views, plausibly accounts shortcomings both....
