The behavioristic interpretation of consciousness ii.

Restatement of the ProblemThe problem which confronts the behaviorist is to find in the physical world deterministic relations between nonqualitative, discrete entities in time and space which fulfill certain conditions of relationship laid down by subjective evidence.I will restate these conditions briefly as the behavioristic problem.x. Awareness, on subjective evidence, is merely a relation of something to something else, such that the attributes of content result.It presents no positive characteristics in itself and will be adequately accounted for by any physical process which will account for the attributes of content.2. The unity of consciousness.This consists of a coexistence of things (elements of content) in an undefinable relationship which excludes other things.Any physical system which gives rise to other attributes of content will meet this condition.3.
