  • Consciousness, Accessibility, and the Mesh Between Psychology and Neuroscience
    BEHAVIORAL AND BRAIN SCIENCES (2007) 30, 481–548 Printed in the United States of America doi: 10.1017/S0140525X07002786 Consciousness, accessibility, and the mesh between psychology and neuroscience Ned Block Department of Philosophy, New York University, New York, NY 10003 [email protected] Abstract: How can we disentangle the neural basis of phenomenal consciousness from the neural machinery of the cognitive access that underlies reports of phenomenal consciousness? We see the problem in stark form if we ask how we can tell whether representations inside a Fodorian module are phenomenally conscious. The methodology would seem straightforward: Find the neural natural kinds that are the basis of phenomenal consciousness in clear cases – when subjects are completely confident and we have no reason to doubt their authority – and look to see whether those neural natural kinds exist within Fodorian modules. But a puzzle arises: Do we include the machinery underlying reportability within the neural natural kinds of the clear cases? If the answer is “Yes,” then there can be no phenomenally conscious representations in Fodorian modules. But how can we know if the answer is “Yes”? The suggested methodology requires an answer to the question it was supposed to answer! This target article argues for an abstract solution to the problem and exhibits a source of empirical data that is relevant, data that show that in a certain sense phenomenal consciousness overflows cognitive accessibility. I argue that we can find a neural realizer of this overflow if we assume that the neural basis of phenomenal consciousness does not include the neural basis of cognitive accessibility and that this assumption is justified (other things being equal) by the explanations it allows.

Special emphasis is given to the support and training of independent young investigators, beginning at the postdoctoral level. The Program is implemented by an international organisation, supported financially by Australia, Canada, France, Germany, India, Italy, Japan, the Republic of Korea, New Zealand, Norway, Singapore, Switzerland, the United Kingdom, the United States of America, and the European Union. Since 1990, over 6000 awards have been made to researchers from more than 70 countries. Of these, 25 HFSP awardees have gone on to receive the Nobel Prize.

Portraits that reveal the face of science… Scientific progress requires exceptional women and men. I am reminded daily by people I meet that research done at CEA is reputed, respected and admired. But who can claim a complete understanding of it? A global view, from physics to biology, and from chemistry to medicine, requires a vision that is simply too broad. Who can claim to keep up with it? The frontiers of knowledge are constantly advancing. No one ever undertakes the same kind of research twice. Indeed, the beauty of research resides in its variability and plenitude. It is impossible to glimpse its nature other than through synecdoche, from multiple angles, and in flashes. This selection - by no means exhaustive - of women and men, students and seniors, researchers and technicians, paints a portrait of the “knowledge factory” that is the Fundamental Research Division at CEA. For once, reality will explain the impossible. Vincent Berger, Director of Fundamental Research, CEA FACES OF SCIENCE 5 Faces ScienceOF 8 What is fundamental research aimed at?
