From the intrinsic perspective of the system, the amount of integrated information specified by a mechanism in a state cannot be more than either the cause or the effect integrated information, so the minimum of the two is taken [15]: Finally, again from the intrinsic perspective, the mechanism's causal role within the system in its current state can only be a single one—corresponding to the cause-effect repertoire that is maximally irreducible (a mechanism cannot perform multiple input-output functions over an overlapping set of elements, [15]).
