Core Consciousness - Daniel Stern

Daniel Stern

Daniel Stern's phases of the development of the sense of self map neatly into Damasio's (1999) neuropsychological descriptions: the "proto-self" (first-order neural maps), core consciousness (second-order neural maps), and extended consciousness (involving third-order neural maps).

Where 'the emergent self that Stern describes is conceptualised by Damasio as the "proto-self"...'s core self is the product of core consciousness'.

    To spend the time luxuriously
    Becomes not men of worth.
