The Unity of Consciousness
Open accessAbstract
Bayne examines the idea that a human being can have only a single stream of consciousness at any one point in time. He draws on philosophy, psychology, and neuroscience to defend the claim that consciousness is unified, and he explores the implications for theories of consciousness and for our understanding of the self.

“The scienti fi c importance of developing C-tests is clear, for knowing whether a particular kind of entity falls within the distribution of consciousness may have an important bearing on accounts of the nature of consciousness, such as whether it is necessarily uni fi ed [41], comes in degrees [42], or is multiply realized [43,44].”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
