Problems of Consciousness (Intro Psych Tutorial #97)

In this video I begin the unit on consciousness by considering a number of problems associated with understanding consciousness. These include the mind-body problem, the problem of other minds, and the hard problem of consciousness. While we don’t have solutions to these problems, we can still study certain aspects of consciousness and attempt to understand the characteristics of consciousness, levels of consciousness, and altered states of consciousness.

  1. On being a philosophical zombie, what does it mean to not be a philosophical zombie. If a philosophical zombie is doing everything a conscious being is doing, then how do you really differentiate it from a real person. Is there any difference at all?
