In this paper I shall attempt to argue for the simple view of personal identity. I shall first argue that we often do have
warrant for our beliefs that we exist as continuing subjects of experience, and that these beliefs are justified independently
of any reductionist analysis of what it means to be a person. This has two important implications that are relevant to the
ongoing debate concerning the number of persons that are in existence throughout any duration in time: (1) the lack of logically
or metaphysically necessary and sufficient conditions for distinguishing one person from another should imply neither that
there is only one person nor that personhood is not individuative; and (2) the lack of such universally applicable identity
criteria should not imply that the term ‘person’ is a folk term with no real application. In other words, lack of reductionist
analysis does not entail lack of existence. 相似文献

False recall of an unpresented critical word after studying its semantic associates can be reduced substantially if the strongest
and earliest-studied associates are presented as part-list cues during testing (Kimball & Bjork, 2002). To disentangle episodic
and semantic contributions to this decline in false recall, we factorially manipulated the cues’ serial position and their
strength of association to the critical word. Presenting cues comprising words that had been studied early in a list produced
a greater reduction in false recall than did presenting words studied late in the list, independent of the cues’ associative
strength, but only when recall of the cues themselves was prohibited. When recall of the cues was permitted, neither early-studied
nor late-studied cues decreased false recall reliably, relative to uncued lists. The findings suggest that critical words
and early-studied words share a similar fate during recall, owing to selective episodic strengthening of their associations
during study. 相似文献

Education for parents was recently mandated in Taiwan and presents a challenge to the schools. The purpose of this study was to determine how two generations perceive parenting strengths and learning needs. Taiwanese mothers of 10- to 14-year-olds (n=209) and their adolescent children (n=201) completed the Parent Success Indicator. Generational reports were compared, and effects of independent variables were examined. The amount of time mothers spent talking to and doing things with their adolescents had the greatest influence on how both groups rated mother success. Unfavorable ratings expressed by mothers and adolescents identified topics that would be appropriate for parent education. The findings will be used by educators and researchers to support parent development in Taiwan. 相似文献

Attempts to capture the distinction between categorical and dispositional states in terms of more primitive modal notions – subjunctive conditionals, causal roles, or combinatorial principles – are bound to fail. Such failure is ensured by a deep symmetry in the ways dispositional and categorical states alike carry modal import. But the categorical/dispositional distinction should not be abandoned; it underpins important metaphysical disputes. Rather, it should be taken as a primitive, after which the doomed attempts at reductive explanation can be transformed into circular but interesting accounts. 相似文献

Three train drivers were interviewed one month after their involvement in a railway suicide or suicide attempt. The case studies demonstrate that reactions to these incidents vary from the severe and debilitating (concurrent diagnoses of post-traumatic stress disorder and neurotic depression) to the relatively mild (few reported symptoms). All train drivers reported a significant reduction in symptoms at a follow-up interview six months after the incident. Although the psychological effects of these incidents may be severe they appear to be time-limited. 相似文献

When we look at a scene, we are conscious of only a small fraction of the available visual information at any given point in time. This raises profound questions regarding how information is selected, when awareness occurs, and the nature of the mechanisms underlying these processes. One tool that may be used to probe these issues is object-substitution masking (OSM). In OSM, a sparse, temporally-trailing four dot mask can interfere with target perception, even though the target and mask have different contours and do not spatially overlap (Enns & Di Lollo, 1997). Here, we investigate the mechanisms underlying the recently discovered recovery from OSM observed with prolonged mask exposure (Goodhew, Visser, Lipp, & Dux, 2011). In three experiments, we demonstrate that recovery is unaffected by mask offset, and that prolonged physical exposure of the mask is not necessary for recovery. These findings confirm that recovery is not due to: (a) an offset transient impairing the visibility of other stimuli that are nearby in space and time, or (b) mask adaptation or temporal object-individuation cues resulting from prolonged mask exposure. Instead, our results confirm recovery as a high-level visual-cognitive phenomenon, which is inherently tied to target-processing time. This reveals the prolonged iterative temporal dynamics of conscious object perception. 相似文献

We examined the extent to which observers’ expectations of target employees’ civic virtue organizational citizenship behaviors (OCB) are a function of both observer- (gender stereotype activation, threat) and target-related (gender) influences. Consistent with a role congruity perspective, we proposed that civic virtue (constructive involvement in the political governance process of the organization) will be expected to a lesser extent of women, but only when gender stereotypes are activated. We confirm this hypothesis across two studies. In Study 1, based on a sample of 187 U.S. undergraduate students (101 women, 86 men), we show that less civic virtue is expected of women when observers’ gender stereotypes are experimentally activated (vs. the non-activated condition). Using an additional sample of 197 U.S. undergraduate students (Study 2; 118 women, 79 men), we extend our findings by demonstrating that less civic virtue was expected of women in a high (vs. low) threat (manipulated) condition. Findings for men are included for comparative and general informational purposes only. We observed no significant changes in civic virtue expectations for men due to our study manipulations. Our research extends prior studies by showing that expectations for civic virtue are diminished for women, but only when gender stereotypes and threat are activated. 相似文献

The attentional blink (AB) refers to a deficit in reporting the second of two sequentially presented targets when they are separated by less than 500 ms. Two decades of research has suggested that the AB is a robust phenomenon that is likely attributable to a fundamental limit in sequential object processing. This assumption, however, has recently been undermined by a demonstration that the AB can be eliminated after only a few hundred training trials (Choi, Chang, Shibata, Sasaki, & Watanabe in Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences 109:12242–12247, 2012). In the present work, we examined whether this training benefited performance directly, by eliminating processing limitations as claimed, or indirectly, by creating expectations about when targets would appear. Consistent with the latter option, when temporal expectations were reduced, training-related improvements declined significantly. This suggests that whereas training may ameliorate the AB indirectly, the processing limits evidenced in the AB cannot be directly eliminated by brief exposure to the task. 相似文献

Studies among youth have established a link between mental health and physical health, and highlight the importance of attending
to these relationships to provide a more complete picture of functioning. However, most previous investigations have limited
their focus to examining the relationship between physical health and either particular aspects of psychopathology or particular
aspects of subjective well-being. The current study serves as a first examination that includes both positive (subjective
well-being [SWB]) and negative (psychopathology) indicators of mental health in relation to physical health functioning, assessed
via self-report measures completed by a sample of 401 early adolescents from the general population. Mental health indicators
accounted for 30% of the variance in physical health ratings, and 4 of the 5 mental health indicators were unique predictors
of physical health. Positive affect, a component of SWB, explained the most unique variance in physical health, followed by
the other components of SWB. Results support the importance of attending to positive indicators of mental health when determining
the link with physical health among youth. Implications for a research and practice focus on comprehensive wellness among
youth are discussed. 相似文献
