Consciousness and inward electromagnetic field interactions.
This review discusses longstanding EMF theories of mind/brain integration as a potential explanation for unified conscious experience and aspects of the "hard problem" of consciousness. It notes that EMFs are measurable and that correlates have been reported with changes in consciousness, sensory perception, and behavior. The author argues that early evidence against EMF involvement was misinterpreted and presents an alternative perspective to inform future research.
Key points
- The paper is a review of EMF-based theories of mind/brain integration and their relevance to consciousness.
- It frames EMF theories as offering a potential solution to the binding problem of unified conscious experience.
- The abstract states that EMF activity has been associated with loss and recovery of consciousness, sensory perceptions, and behavior.
- The author argues that early experiments interpreted as ruling out EMF roles were misinterpreted.
- The article proposes an alternative view aimed at directing future research rather than presenting new exposure experiments.
- No specific EMF exposure characteristics (frequency, intensity, duration) are provided in the abstract.
