あらすじ・解説
This episode of WHAT IS THIS? explores the nature of consciousness and the "hard problem" – the challenge of understanding how our subjective experiences arise from physical processes in the brain.
The episode examines the idea that the difficulty of understanding consciousness may stem not from its inherent nature but from psychological biases that shape our intuitions. Drawing upon the work of Iris Berent, as presented in the source "Consciousness isn’t “hard”—it’s human psychology that makes it so!", this episode specifically examines the concept of intuitive dualism – the implicit belief that the mind and body are separate entities.
This episode draws on the article, "Consciousness isn’t “hard”—it’s human psychology that makes it so!" by Iris Berent and published in 2024 in Neuroscience of Consciousness. Iris Berent, is a professor in the Department of Psychology at Northeastern University.
