PSYCHOLOGY OF EMOTIONS

Detailed explanation-1: -Conscious awareness is a twofold state of being, in which the mind is both awake as well as cognizant of its surroundings. Like in the classic example of a square is always a rectangle but a rectangle is not always a square, a mind can be consciously aware but it cannot be aware without also being conscious.

Detailed explanation-2: -Sigmund Freud divided human consciousness into three levels of awareness: the conscious, preconscious, and unconscious.

Detailed explanation-3: -Conscious is a Latin word whose original meaning was “knowing” or “aware.” So a conscious person has an awareness of her environment and her own existence and thoughts. If you’re “self-conscious, ‘’ you’re overly aware and even embarrassed by how you think you look or act.

Detailed explanation-4: -Consciousness is an unusual phenomenon to study scientifically. It is defined as a subjective, first-person phenomenon, and science is an objective, third-person endeavor.
