经验和大脑过程有不同的说法。从表面上看,这表明这些是不同类型的现象,或者至少不能简单地识别它们。因为我们可以把疼痛称为“痛苦的”或“痛苦的”,而不能理智地把这种归因归因于大脑的过程,我们知道疼痛不可能仅仅是大脑中的一个过程。同样,我们可以在大脑中的特定位置合理地定位神经过程,但不能定位经验。既然有机体有经验,我们可以说它们的经验发生在它们(有机体)所在的任何地方,但这并不意味着我们可以将它们定位在身体的特定部位(包括大脑);正如我们不能将概念或想法定位在身体的特定部位一样。
Different kinds of things can be said of experiences than can be said of brain processes. This indicates, prima facie, that these are different sorts of phenomena or at least that they cannot simply be identified. Because we can call pain “excruciating” or “agonizing” and cannot sensibly make such ascriptions of brain processes,1 we know that pain cannot be simply a process in the brain. Similarly, we can sensibly locate a neural process in a particular place in the brain but not an experience. Since organisms have experiences, we can say that their experiences occur wherever they (the organisms) are, but this does not mean that we can locate them in a particular part of the body (including the brain); no more than we can locate concepts or ideas in a particular part of the body.
