Daniel Dennett(The statement references his specific philosophical framework): A contemporary American philosopher famous for arguing that consciousness and the mind can be fully explained by physical processes in the brain, without needing any mysterious or special mental properties.
David Chalmers(as a key figure in the hard problem of consciousness): A contemporary philosopher famous for arguing that consciousness—the felt experience of things—is mysteriously hard to explain using only physical science.
Empirical-philosophical problem(as a way of describing the type of problem being addressed): A question that requires both scientific observation and logical reasoning to solve—combining what we can test in the real world with what we can argue through careful thinking.
Heterophenomenology(contrasted with relying only on what individuals claim about their own experiences): Dennett's approach to studying consciousness by combining third-person scientific observation with first-person reports, rather than trusting subjective experience alone.
