In my opinion, as far as cluster concepts go, "consciousness" is a messier concept than "attention." But I think we need to talk about this from both an empirical and theoretical point of view.
Thanks Tuomas. I think that even if attention turns out to be a cluster concept, it is still useful in thinking about different cognitive functions, some of which might be more essential for consciousness than others.
New publication with Azenet Lopez on the difference between consciousness and attention within the Integrated Information Theory. We believe that analyzing this issue across views can help us advance the debate on the nature of consciousness:
