Global workspace theory

Explanation:

According to the global workspace theory while there are certain parts of the brain that are active when perceiving something there are other parts of the brain that are working in order to support the main function that the brain is doing.

This means that not only one part of the brain is active to contribute to the moment-to-moment experiences of a person.
