If I were to touch the auditory system in your brain– would you 'hear' my hand? or – would you feel my hand?
In other words, • Is the subjective sensory experience dependent
– on the sensory system stimulated? or– on the stimulating stimulus?
- Provide real life examples to support your claim- Be ready to defend/articulate your claim

• The doctrine of specific nerve energy states that the subjective experience depends on the specific nerve stimulated, not the stimulus.
• The same nerve can be stimulated by different stimuli (e.g. pressure, light)
• Functions are localized in the brain
• The brain affects the mind

– It investigates how the brain implements the mind
– Assumes that mental activity has a biological basis– (behaviors, emotions, thoughts, desires, are the result of physical processes).
• Philosophy of mind
– It questions whether the brain implement the mind
– Does mental activity have a biological basis? And how is that possible? This is the:
