Question

Juan believes that the prefrontal cortex is responsible for consciousness. Pierre disagrees, saying that no single area of the brain is responsible for consciousness, and that instead specific areas process certain types of information. Pierre most likely believes in the ________ model of consciousness.

Answer 1

Answer:

The correct option is: Global workspace model of consciousness

Explanation:

The Global workspace theory is a theory that suggests that the conscious and unconscious processes are present in matching pairs.
