Transcendental Subjectivity in Phenomenology of Perception

Embodied Idealism June 22, 2023 Joseph C. Berendzen

Abstract: Chapter 6 set to the side some problems that arise for the transcendental interpretation of Phenomenology. This chapter considers those problems insofar as they are related to consciousness and subjectivity. Merleau-Ponty’s emphasis on the connection between body and world suggests the possibility that our experience is shaped by elements outside the scope of subjectivity....

Phenomenology and temporality in psychopathology: Calibrating qualitative phenomenological methods according to the timescale of subjective reports

June 19, 2023 Aleš Oblak, Dominik Milotić, Borut Škodlar et al. preprint

Many methodologies for systematic study of lived experience have been proposed. Methods are typically calibrated in terms of the depth and complexity of data collection and whether they consider reports on pre-reflective experience admissible. Even though it has been shown that lived experience occurs at different timescales (elementary, integrative, narrative), contemporary methods tend to...

How Can the Literature on Phenomenology Inform the Teaching of Accurate Empathy in Social Work Practice?

Practice June 15, 2023 Clare Brown 2 citations

The ability to demonstrate empathy is identified as a key social work attribute by the professional regulator and other professional bodies as well as in government guidance and the relevant QAA Subject Benchmark Statement. Empathy is strongly linked to the ability to learn from experience and, as such, has relevance beyond social work to higher education in general. This paper will focus on...

The double empathy problem and the problem of empathy: neurodiversifying phenomenology

Disability & Society June 7, 2023 David Ekdahl 94 citations

The notion that autistic individuals suffer from empathy deficiencies continues to be a widespread assumption, including in many areas of philosophy and cognitive science.In response to this, Damian Milton has proposed an interactional approach to empathy, namely the theory of the double empathy problem.According to this theory, empathy is fundamentally dependent on mutual reciprocity or...

The enactive account of motivated activity and the hard problem of efficacy (HPE): Artificial life meets the physics of life

May 22, 2023 Tom Froese, Georgii Karelin 2 citations preprint

The enactive approach to cognitive science has undergone a bio-phenomenologically inspired “normative turn” by characterizing an organism’s activity as motivated by intrinsic value, where this value is grounded in adaptive self-production under precarious conditions. However, efforts in the field of artificial life to model this enactive conception of life have unwittingly revealed a case of...

TMS-EEG and resting-state EEG applied to altered states of consciousness: oscillations, complexity, and phenomenology.

iScience May 19, 2023 Andres Ort, John W Smallridge, Simone Sarasso et al. 47 citations

Exploring the neurobiology of the profound changes in consciousness induced by classical psychedelic drugs may require novel neuroimaging methods. Serotonergic psychedelic drugs such as psilocybin produce states of increased sensory-emotional awareness and arousal, accompanied by increased spontaneous electroencephalographic (EEG) signal diversity. By directly stimulating cortical tissue, the...

Cognitive Phenomenology Neuroscience and Computation

Cognitive Computation May 17, 2023 Neyla Sfeir, Igor Aleksander 1 citation

Abstract Phenomenology is concerned with the first-person experience of or about some object, and is generally related to sensory experience, for example, auditory or visual. Cognitive phenomenology refers to an element of phenomenological experience that does not have a sensory character. Experiences of thought, understanding, and appreciation of meaning are less figurative than the sensory...

The phenomenology of auditory verbal hallucinations among clients with schizophrenia: The association with acceptance and autonomous action responses.

Archives of Psychiatric Nursing May 5, 2023 Ayman Mohamed El-Ashry, Eman Sameh Abd Elhay, Mona Metwally El-Sayed

Background: Living with the experience of hearing voices without trying to ignore or suppress them is referred to as accepting auditory verbal hallucinations (AVH). It varies depending on the phenomenology of AVH itself; some clients may find it challenging to acquire new coping mechanisms with the voices. Aim: Examine the association between the phenomenology of AVH and acceptance or...

Voice phenomenology as a mirror of the past.

Psychological Medicine May 1, 2023 David Van den Berg, Eva Tolmeijer, Alyssa Jongeneel et al.

Post-traumatic mechanisms are theorised to contribute to voice-hearing in people with psychosis and a history of trauma. Phenomenological links between trauma and voices support this hypothesis, as they suggest post-traumatic processes contribute to the content of, and relationships with, voices. However, research has included small samples and lacked theory-based comprehensive assessments. In...

Relating different dimensions of bodily experiences: Review and proposition of an integrative model relying on phenomenology, predictive brain and neuroscience of the self.

Neuroscience & Biobehavioral Reviews May 1, 2023 Lisa Raoul, Marie-Hélène Grosbras 15 citations

How we mentally experience our body has been studied in a variety research domains. Each of these domains focuses in its own ways on different aspects of the body, namely the neurophysiological, perceptual, affective or social components, and proposes different conceptual taxonomies. It is therefore difficult to find one's way through this vast literature and to grasp the relationships between...
