Is Attention Both Necessary and Sufficient for Consciousness?

Bag om Is Attention Both Necessary and Sufficient for Consciousness?

Is attention both necessary and sufficient for consciousness? Call this central question of this treatise, "Q." We commonly have the experience of consciously paying attention to something, but is it possible to be conscious of something you are not attending to, or to attend to something of which you are not conscious? Where might we find examples of these? This treatise is a quest to find an answer to Q in two parts. Part 1 reviews the foundations upon which the discourse on Q is built. Different inputs to Q produce different answers. After consideration of the many ways "attention" and "consciousness" have been defined, I settle upon phenomenal consciousness and Executive Attention (defined as a suite of strategies for structuring cognition for further processing implemented by the executive of working memory) as the most interesting inputs to Q, and the ones on which Part II focuses
