Is it true that human conscious experience is a construction built by the brain from sensory signals rather than a direct view of the world?
Unclear. Several peer-reviewed sources partially support the view that conscious experience is constructed by the brain rather than a direct view of the world, including neural models of non-conscious processing and arguments that consciousness constructs a subjective world. None of the retrieved items fully settles the claim at the strength asserted.
