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'.

Famous quotes containing the words daniel and/or stern:

    “But ah, no more! this must not be foretold,
    For women grieve to think they must be old.”
    —Samuel Daniel (1562–1619)

    “It was her stern necessity: all things
    Are of one pattern made; bird, beast, and flower,
    Deceive us, seeming to be many things,
    And are but one. Beheld far off, they differ
    As God and devil; bring them to the mind,
    They dull its edge with their monotony.”
    —Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
