内在语境是意识的关键

Intrinsic Contextuality as the Crux of Consciousness

Diederik Aerts, Jan Broekaert, Liane Gabora

摘要:

有意识的经验流是非常有背景的;它受到感官刺激,驱动器和情绪的影响,以及直接或间接地将经验主题与个人世界观的其他元素联系起来的关联网络。一个人的意识体验的情境性既增强又约束一个人的行为的情境性。由于我们无法直接了解另一个系统的意识体验,因此我们只能通过行为情境来判断一个系统是否有意识,以及在多大程度上有意识。因此,我们相信,对语境的深刻理解对于意识的研究至关重要。在量子粒子的微观世界中处理上下文的方法已经被开发出来。我们的目标是调查这些方法在多大程度上可以用来分析有意识经验中的语境性。这项工作是最近发起的跨学科合作的初步努力。

英文摘要:

A stream of conscious experience is extremely contextual; it is impacted by sensory stimuli, drives and emotions, and the web of associations that link, directly or indirectly, the subject of experience to other elements of the individual's worldview. The contextuality of one's conscious experience both enhances and constrains the contextuality of one's behavior. Since we cannot know first-hand the conscious experience of another, it is by way of behavioral contextuality that we make judgements about whether or not, and to what extent, a system is conscious. Thus we believe that a deep understanding of contextuality is vital to the study of consciousness. Methods have been developed for handling contextuality in the microworld of quantum particles. Our goal has been to investigate the extent to which these methods can be used to analyze contextuality in conscious experience. This work is the fledgling efforts of a recently-initiated interdisciplinary collaboration.
