Explanation:
Stream of consciousness or inner monologue is a term coined by psychologists in the mid 1800s. First was Alexander Bain a pyschologist in his book in 1855.
It is used as a literary or narrative device that allows the reader to perceive and visualize a character's thoughts. When you encounter a passage written using this narrative device, you will see little to no punctuation marks and mixed ideas which may or may not be in sync with a character's doings.
Writers like James Joyce and Virginia Wolf made use of the stream of consciousness in several literary works. Among them: Ulysses and Mrs Dalloway stand out.
