“IPA”, “DES”, “micro phenomenology”, “phenomenological psychology”, “hermeneutic phenomenological method”, “neurophenomenology”, “reflective lifeworld research”, and “ethnographic phenomenological interviews” are just some examples of the many methods out there. While they all claim to work with subjective experience, it is not easy to identify their specificities and differences. When you work...

Spinoza, conscientia ve conscius kavramları arasında anlamsal herhangi bir ayırım yapmayıp birini diğerinin yerine kullanmıştır. Ancak geleneksel felsefede conscientia kavramı “ahlaki duyarlılık” ya da “farkındalık” anlamına gelen bir “iç ses” ya da “vicdan” olarak kullanılmakta ve hem rasyonel hem de irrasyonel süreçleri ifade etmektedir. Diğer yandan aynı felsefi gelenekte conscius kavramı...

Günümüzde ruh-beden ikiciliği/düalizmi denilince akla gelen görüş Descartes’ın (öl. 1650) sistematize etmiş olduğu cevher ikiciliğidir. Adından da anlaşılacağı gibi cevher ikiciliği, iki farklı türde cevherin var olduğu imasında bulunur. Benzer şekilde İbn Sînâ (öl. 428/1037) da nefsin maddeden farklı türde bir cevher olduğunu ifade ederek bir tür cevher ikiciliği benimsemişse de onun ikiciliği...

The “Slicing Problem” is a thought experiment that raises questions for substrate-neutral computational theories of consciousness, including those that specify a certain causal structure for the computation like Integrated Information Theory. The thought experiment uses water-based logic gates to construct a computer in a way that permits cleanly slicing each gate and connection in half,...

This paper provides a critical discussion of the views of Merleau-Ponty and contemporary enactivism concerning the phenomenological dimension of the continuity between life and mind. I argue that Merleau-Ponty’s views are at odds with those of enactivists. Merleau-Ponty only applied phenomenological descriptions to the life-worlds of sentient animals with sensorimotor systems, contrary to those...

Is selfhood socially constituted and distributed? Although the view has recently been defended by some cognitive scientists, it has long been popular within anthropology and cultural psychology. Whereas older texts by Marcel Mauss, Clifford Geertz, Hazel Rose Markus, and Shinobu Kitayama often contrast a Western conception of a discrete, bounded, and individual self with a non-Western...

Although it is recognized that voice-hearers often report a large number and variety of voices there have been few investigations of this multiplicity. Understanding the phenomenology of voice-hearing can provide a firm foundation for theorizing about its causes. In this international online survey of voice-hearers, details were elicited of the content of up to five utterances associated with...

Abstract The claim that phenomenal consciousness essentially involves self-consciousness, in the sense of mineness , has gained momentum in recent years. In this paper, I discuss the main non-phenomenological, theoretical argument for this claim: the so-called “transcendental argument” for universal mineness (Zahavi 2018, p. 711), which, in essence, corresponds to Shoemaker’s critique of the...

The experiences associated with remembering, including metamemory feelings about the act of remembering and attempts at remembering, are not often integrated into general accounts of memory. For example, David Rubin (2022) proposes a unified, three-dimensional conceptual space for mapping memory states, a map that does not systematically specify metamemory feelings. Drawing on Rubin's model, we...

This paper proposes a phenomenological hypothesis that psychosis entails a disturbance of the two-fold process of the indication function of kinesthesia and the presentification function of touch that affects the constitution of bodily subjectivity. Recent functional connectivity studies showed that the increased synchrony between the right anterior insula and the default mode network are...
