【摘要】 关于感受质的本体论地位、存在形式及其与大脑神经活动之间的关系在当代西方心灵哲学中存在许多争论。埃德尔曼把上述问题集中放置于自然主义视域中,从脑科学的维度肯定了感受质的本体论地位。他把整体-部分关系作为感受质存在的自然主义理论根据,并在此基础上提出"动态核心假说"来说明感受质的存在形式,用"蕴涵关系"理论来说明感受质与大脑神经活动之间具有一种非常规的因果关联性。更多还原

【Abstract】 Qualia’s ontological status,forms and its relation with neural activities are in hot debates in Western philosophy of mind.

The dynamic core hypothesis and entailment theory based on brain science are used to support the ontological status of qualia and explain the relation between neural activities and qualia.更多还原
