Abstract

This essay discusses how society constructs the sense of self. The sense of self is divided into minimal self and narrative self. The former is further divided into sense of self-agency, bodily self-consciousness, and neural subjective frame. In this essay, I try to make a hypothesis as to how society constructs the sense of self per each layer of the sense of self.
