One trick is to figure out if there are any objective measurements that can be taken which line up with the subjective input. One example is taking an EEG recording while performing a backward-masking experiment (aka displaying subliminal images), and seeing if their subjective experience "I did see the second image" versus "I did not see the second image" line up with the EEG measurements in the prefontal lobe.

A very good book about what we currently (minus 3 years, perhaps) know: https://www.amazon.com/Consciousness-Brain-Deciphering-Codes...

If you're interested in a more rigorous analysis of what is known about consciousness today, I'd recommend the book Consciousness and the Brain: http://www.amazon.com/Consciousness-Brain-Deciphering-Codes-...
