What is an agent that it experiences P-consciousness? And what is P-consciousness that it moves an agent?

Roger N. Shepard

Abstract

Abstract If phenomenal consciousness is distinct from the computationally based access-consciousness that controls overt behavior, how can I tell which things (other than myself) enjoy phenomenal consciousness? And if phenomenal consciousness 'plays no role in controlling overt behavior, how do human bodies come to write target articles arguing for the existence of phenomenal consciousness?
