The Subconscious-First Consciousness (SF-C) Model: A Functional Framework for Awareness, Memory, and Adaptive Learning
Abstract
This preprint introduces the Subconscious-First Consciousness (SF-C) model, a theoretical framework proposing that subconscious processing precedes and constrains conscious awareness. The model presents an original functional architecture integrating perception, memory formation, adaptive learning, and decision-making. This work is an original theoretical contribution authored by the submitting researcher. AI tools were used solely for language refinement and formatting assistance; the conceptual framework, structure, and claims originate entirely from the author.
