By defining multiple aspects of consciousness, immediate responses versus internal thoughts, it’ll be clearer how to explore and compare results from different experiments. For now, the global neuronal workspace theory mostly focuses on the “inner experience” that leads to consciousness, whereas others try to tackle the “outer experience” what we immediately experience.
