The Perceptual Sense of Agency
The sense of agency is the experience of predicting, initiating, or controlling actions. In this paper, I provide a novel account of the sense of agency that appears in perceptual consciousness. I follow theorists such as Bayne and Prinz in suggesting that the perceptual sense of agency (PSoA) is underpinned by self-monitoring processes. The self-monitoring mechanism compares sensory predictions, made on the basis of motor commands, with sensory …

Phenomenological Laws and Mechanistic Explanations
In light of recent criticisms by Woodward (2017) and Rescorla (2018), we examine the relationship between mechanistic explanation and phenomenological laws. We disambiguate several uses of the phrase “phenomenological law” and show how a mechanistic theory of explanation sorts them into those that are and are not explanatory. We also distinguish the problem of phenomenological laws from arguments about the explanatory power of purely phenomenal m…
A Multifaceted Educational Design Approach to Critical Care Rotation Improves Learner Confidence and Knowledge
Purpose: We developed a pilot elective to enhance the critical care training experience for medical students through integration of didactic, simulation, and experiential learning with the goal to increase student confidence in caring for patients with critical illness and advance knowledge and competencies within core critical care topics. Approach: We created and piloted a 4-week critical care elective for fourth-year medical students pairing c…
