达马西奥的自我实在论评析

A Commentary on Damasio's Theory of the Self

当代著名认知神经科学家达马西奥以认知神经科学的理论和方法研究自我问题,提出了自我的"三层次理论",从神经生物学和进化论有力地论证了自我的实在性,开辟了探索自我问题的新视野,拓展了研究自我问题的新领域。但其关于自我的分类、自我形式的社会性扩展等观点还有待进一步研究。

A. Damasio is a famous contemporary cognitive neuroscientist. One of his important achievements is to re- search the self in the theories and means of cognitive neuroscience, which constitute a ＂three -layers theory＂ of the self. This theory＇ s core idea is to argue fer the reality of the self based on neurobiology and cognitive neuroscience. It is important for our study about the essence of the self. Of course, for some questions, such as the sorts of the self, the forms of the self, and so on, we must study more deeply.
