The two leading cognitive accounts of consciousness currently available con-cern global workspace (a form of working memory) and metacognition. There isrelatively little interaction between these two approaches and it has even beensuggested that the two accounts are rival and separable alternatives. Here, weargue that the successful function of a global workspace critically requires thatthe broadcast representations include a metacognitive component.
