Higher-order theories of consciousness
Higher-order theories of consciousness postulate that consciousness consists in perceptions, thoughts, or beliefs about first-order mental states. In particular, phenomenal consciousness is thought to be higher-order representation of perceptual or quasi-perceptual contents, such as visual images. Higher-order theories are distinguished from other cognitive/representational accounts of consciousness which suggest that merely first-order mentality of certain sorts constitutes consciousness.
