空间知觉:表征或生成?

Space Perception: Representation or Enaction?

空间知觉有两种哲学阐释,分别是表征观和生成观。面对空间知觉的"不充分性决定"难题和"直接与间接"之争时,表征理论难以弥合"物理域"和"心理域"之间的逻辑鸿沟。生成知觉观通过引入行动,不仅消解了"主客二分"所引发的哲学难题,而且对空间知觉的质性做出比较恰当的解释。

There are two kinds of philosophical explanation accounting for space perception. One is the representa- tional perception theory, and the other is enaetive perception approach. When confronting the problem of ＂under- determination＂ concerning space perception and the debate over ＂being direct＂ or ＂being indirect＂ around it, the representational perception theory cannot bridge the gap between ＂psychological domain＂ and ＂physical domain＂. By introducing action, enactive perception approach not only dismisses the philosophical problems which arise with the subject-object dichotomy, but also gives appropriate explanation for the characteristics of space perception.
