1. Spatiotemporal Consciousness in Special Relativity
Master-uppsats, Umeå universitet/Institutionen för idé- och samhällsstudierSammanfattning : The experience of time passing is a fundamental part of the human experience, but what is the relationship between conscious experiences in time and the relativistic nature of space and time? It is natural to think that our phenomenal experiences are realised by neuralevents in our brains. And it seems plausible that the order of these neural events makes a difference to our phenomenology. LÄS MER
2. The evolutionary origins of consciousness
Magister-uppsats, Högskolan i Skövde/Institutionen för biovetenskapSammanfattning : Some unanswered questions about consciousness as a biological phenomenon lie in its evolutionary origin and distribution among living organisms.

Magister-uppsats, Umeå universitet/Institutionen för psykologiSammanfattning : How do we persist over time: What conditions need to be fulfilled for us to remain the same person from one moment to the next? Two theories have dominated the debate for a longtime: the physical and psychological approaches, which are centred on sameness of body and sameness of psychology, respectively. This thesis will focus on a third theory, the phenomenal approach, which defines persistence as the sameness of consciousness. LÄS MER
