The basic kinds of consciousness in contemporary naturalistic philosophy (in Polish)

Main Article Content

Andrzej Dąbrowski

Abstract

Research to date into the theory of consciousness has shed light on its nature and allowed us to isolate several different kinds of consciousness. Ambitious and non-reductive approaches to consciousness are primarily interested in the distinction between access consciousness and phenomenal consciousness. It appears that for a full understanding of the notion, other types of consciousness may also be important. The purpose of this article is minimalistic: to present in a concise manner the following kinds of consciousness: (1) intransitive consciousness, (2) transitive consciousness, (3) self-consciousness, (4) phenomenal consciousness, (5) functional consciousness (access-consciousness), (6) mental (a) occurrent states, and (b) standing (dormant) states, and non-consciousness.
