Why I Am Skeptical About the Science of Consciousness

in psychology •  7 years ago 

In a nutshell, the problem is that consciousness is not directly measurable so we have to measure something else, a "proxie" for consciousness. But we don't know how well that proxy actually predicts consciousness. We'd need a second proxy. But that raises the same problem. It can never find a firm foundation.
