    Supports→Non-Modal versions of Retentionalism suffer from a serious problem with surplus content

    Dainton's overlap model stipulates that successive specious presents share experiential parts, meaning the same phenomenal content is not duplicated but jointly constituted across adjacent windows.

    Key Terms

    Dainton(as the originator of the overlap model being discussed)
    Barry Dainton is a contemporary philosopher who studies how we experience time and consciousness, particularly focusing on how moments of experience connect together.
    Duplicated (in this context)(describing what does NOT happen according to the overlap model)
    In philosophy of mind, this means creating two separate, identical copies of an experience rather than sharing one experience between moments.
    Jointly constituted(describing how phenomenal content is shared across adjacent time windows)
    Created or made up together by multiple things working as a team, rather than each thing creating its own separate version.
    Overlap model(as Dainton's specific approach to explaining temporal experience)
    A theory about how our experience of time works by proposing that consecutive moments of consciousness overlap with each other, sharing some content rather than being completely separate.

    A unit of conscious temporal experience that encompasses an apparent duration (e.g., roughly one second), within which change and succession are phenomenally present
