Consciousness studies: an experimental approach
Journal Title: Теорія і практика сучасної психології - Year 2018, Vol 6, Issue
Abstract
The paper presents the number of the different approaches to the studies on consciousness in modern psychology and cognitive sciences. As main approach one stresses the interdisciplinary character of the consciousness studies. The article describes the peculiarities of experimental realization of some research approaches and raises the question about their efficiency. The article aims to define the most fruitful approach for further studies on consciousness. As such approach one proposes an experimental examination of the paradoxical phenomena in stream of consciousness. As paradoxical phenomena one interprets the deviations from the declared features of consciousness such as continuity, intentionality, spontaneity of temporal organization, self-experience. Through an analysis of such phenomena one uncovers not only the limits of awareness, but also one develops the functional model of consciousness.
