Models of the states of consciousness and information metabolism
pp. 82-142
Abstract
This part consists of a series of graphical models of the main states. They are designed to integrate a wide range of data on states of consciousness and mental organization, including some theoretical, psychoanalytical concepts. The proposed approach differentiates and describes such notions as psyche, mind, consciousness, awareness, self-consciousness, self-unconsciousness, conscious experience, and altered states of consciousness. They are described in the introduction, which is followed by a discussion of the theoretical presumptions of a series of model aimed at the creation of a comprehensive rationale for the study of states of consciousness and subjective experiences.
