Global workspace theory emerges unscathed
Behavioral and Brain Sciences 30 (5-6):524-525 (2007)
Abstract
Our aim in this reply is to defend Global Workspace theory (GWT) from the challenge of Block's article. We argue that Block's article relies on an outdated and imprecise concept of access, and perpetuates a common misunderstanding of GWT that conflates the global workspace with working memory. In the light of the relevant clarifications, Block's conclusion turns out to be unwarranted, and the basic tenets of GWT emerge unscathedAuthor's Profile
