Awareness

Awareness in philosophy and psychology is a concept about knowing, perceiving and being cognizant of events.^[1] Another definition describes it as a state wherein a subject is aware of some information when that information is directly available to bring to bear in the direction of a wide range of behavioral actions.^[2] The concept is often synonymous to consciousness and is also understood as being consciousness itself.^[3]

The states of awareness are also associated with the states of experience so that the structure represented in awareness is mirrored in the structure of experience.^[2]
