    Behavioral economy(as used in philosophy of mind)

    Causal integration(as used in philosophy of mind)
    When something is connected to other things through cause-and-effect relationships—like how a brain region that processes color is wired up to affect your behavior and decisions.
    Consciousness-accessibility(as used in philosophy of mind)
    Whether something is available to your conscious awareness or experience—whether you can actually feel or think about it.
    Constitutively(describing how common knowledge relates to rationality)
    As an essential or necessary part of something; something that helps make that thing what it is.
