  This paper elaborates on four previously proposed rules of engagement between
conscious states and physiological states. A new rule is proposed that applies
to a continuous model of conscious brain states that cannot precisely resolve
eigenvalues. If two apparatus states are in superposition, and if their
eigenvalues are so close together that they cannot be consciously resolved on
this model, then it is shown that observation will not generally reduce the
superposition to just one of its member eigenstates. In general, the
observation of a quantum mechanical superposition results in another
superposition. Key words: Brain states, consciousness, conscious observer,
macroscopic superposition, measurement, state reduction, state collapse, von
Neumann.
