“Why did Van Gogh cut off his ear?”: Revisited
Using Illusory Line Motion to Differentiate Misrepresentation (Stalinesque) and Misremembering (Orwellian) Accounts of Consciousness
Consciousness and Information Processing: A Reply to Durgin
From `the Thought is the Thinker' to `the Voice is the Speaker': William James and the Dialogical Self
In 1890, William James provided a rich account of self in his Principles of Psychology. Over a hundred years later, Hermans and his colleagues have provided an equally rich account of self, most particularly in Hermans and Kempen's The Dialogical Self (1993). One of the key distinctions in the former work is that between the `I' and `Me', a distinction that Hermans builds on in his concept of the dialogical self. Nevertheless, there are differenc…
The Cognitive Basis of Future‐oriented Prosocial Behavior
Two experiments examined the development of future‐oriented prosocial behavior in relation to developing theory of mind and executive functioning. Children from 3;0 to 4;6 were given a series of trials in which they had to make a choice between immediate and delayed sticker rewards, where these rewards accrued either to self, to a play partner, or were shared. They also were presented with standard theory of mind tasks (in Experiment 1) assessing…
Personology and the Narrative Interpretation of Lives
Personology is the science of persons. In this article we show that the concept of person presupposes the continuity of experience and that the storylike structure of lives makes narrative the most promising methodology. Researchers use first‐person narratives as source material and third‐person narratives in describing and interpreting lives because the temporal nature of experience makes it difficult for human beings not to attribute order, dir…
Experiencing Science and Religion Alone and in Conflict
In a study that used Hermans's (1987, 1988) valuation procedure, 40 participants each provided a highly valued experience of four types: science, religion, interpersonal and intrapersonal conflict between science and religion. They then rated these valuations on 30 affect terms, some of rich were later organized into categories: Positive, Negative, Self, and Other. Participants also filled out questionnaires, that were used to categorize them as …
Hazlitt on the Future of the Self
There are moments in the life of a solitary thinker which are to him what the evening of some great victory is to the conqueror and hero.. .milder triumphs long remembered with truer and deeper delight. And though the shouts of multitudes do not hail his success ... [yet] as time passes ... [such moments] still awaken the consciousness of a spirit patient, indefatigable in the search of truth and a hope of surviving in the thoughts and minds of o…
