Attention Schema Theory and the Construction of Subjective Experience
This chapter explores attention schema theory and its explanation for subjective, phenomenal experience. It discusses the brain's construction of a model of reality and how this leads to the belief in the existence of magical experiences. The chapter highlights the shift from the hard problem of consciousness to the meta problem and provides examples of how the brain builds simplified models.
