Abstract or Description

The human newborn can resolve some response conflicts in order to adapt their behaviour, suggesting that the newborn has consciousness according to Morsella et al.’s framework. We pose a range of developmental questions regarding Morsella et al.’s account, especially concerning the role of consciousness in the development of action.
