    Abstract

    The hard problem of consciousness is the problem of explaining how and why physical processes give rise to consciousness. The meta-problem of consciousness is the problem of explaining why there seems to be a hard problem of consciousness. Equivalently, it is the problem of explaining why people have problem intuitions: dispositions to make certain key judgments that underlie the problem of consciousness.
