行为自我的神经认知结构近年来得到了广泛的研究,但在认知神经科学、精神病理学和哲学中仍然是一个令人困惑和经常混淆的问题。我们对其两个主要特征——代理感和所有权感——提供了一个新的系统描述,表明尽管这两个特征在现象上是一致的,但它们实际上都是复杂的跨模式现象,在很大程度上具有异质的功能和(自我)表征水平。这些层次可以被安排在一个逐渐演变的、在系统发育上似乎合理的框架内,该框架分别从基本的非概念性感觉运动过程到更复杂的代理和所有权的概念性和元表征过程。特别是,必须区分代理和所有权处理的三个基本层次:感觉、思考和社会互动的层次。这种自然主义的解释不仅允许“在行动中建立自我”,而且还为认知神经科学提供了一种经验可检验的分类法,并为精神病理学中解开代理和所有权干扰(例如异手,无政府手,自己偏瘫的病感失认症)提供了一种新工具。(C) 2008爱思唯尔公司版权所有。
The neurocognitive structure of the acting self has recently been widely studied, yet is still perplexing and remains an often confounded issue in cognitive neuroscience, psychopathology and philosophy. We provide a new systematic account of two of its main features, the sense of agency and the sense of ownership, demonstrating that although both features appear as phenomenally uniform, they each in fact are complex crossmodal phenomena of largely heterogeneous functional and (self-)representational levels. These levels can be arranged within a gradually evolving, onto- and phylogenetically plausible framework which proceeds from basic non-conceptual sensorimotor processes to more complex conceptual and meta-representational processes of agency and ownership, respectively. In particular, three fundamental levels of agency and ownership processing have to be distinguished: The level of feeling, thinking and social interaction. This naturalistic account will not only allow to "ground the self in action", but also provide an empirically testable taxonomy for cognitive neuroscience and a new tool for disentangling agency and ownership disturbances in psychopathology (e.g. alien hand, anarchic hand, anosognosia for one's own hemiparesis).
