 In chapter 5 of her (1986) book, Patricia Churchland extended both the range and philosophical implications of neurological deficits. One deficit she discusses in detail is blindsight. Some patients with lesions to primary visual cortex report being unable to see items in regions of their visual fields, yet perform far better than chance in forced guess trials about stimuli in those regions. A variety of scientific and philosophical interpretations have been offered. Ned Block (1995) worried that many of these interpretations conflate distinct notions of consciousness. He labels these notions “phenomenal consciousness” (“P-consciousness”) and “access consciousness” (“A-consciousness”). The former is the “what it is like”-ness of conscious experiences. The latter is the availability of representational content to self-initiated action and speech. Block argued that P-consciousness is not always representational, whereas A-consciousness is. Dennett (1991, 1995) and Tye (1993) are skeptical of non-representational analyses of consciousness in general. They provide accounts of blindsight that do not depend on Block’s distinction.
