K_3_09 — Minimal Consciousness and the Threshold of Sentience

Where does consciousness begin? This question — the problem of the threshold of sentience — is one of the most challenging in consciousness studies because it requires identifying what KIND of physical system is minimall

Higher-order (HO) theories of consciousness propose that a mental state becomes conscious not by virtue of its intrinsic properties but because it is the target of a higher-order mental representation — a thought, percep
