It’s worth distinguishing a few concepts:
① The qualia of the feeling.
② The physical equivalent of the feeling.
③ The causation between a stimulus and ②.
④ The behavior caused by ②.
If I show a person with a spider phobia an image of a spider for 5ms I might know more about what happens to them with ②, ③ and ④ then they do themselves.
In my experience the people who are really got at reading ②, ③ and ④ are generally strongly aware that they can’t read ①.
