10 Two elements of psychological time sensory simultaneity intentional simultaneity ・ is described by synaptic interaction simultaneity ・ compactifies spatio-temporarily distributed neural activities into sensory qualia. ・ complements sensory simultaneity in the formation of percepts ・ gives rise to spatial structures in perception

11 The intentional and sensory qualia

12 intentional qualia of “a man walking” sensory qualia of white dots in a black background

13 Sensory qualia; blacks and whites Intentional qualia; a Dalmatian

19 The Symbolic Mind. Or how our cognitive processes “plug” into the symbolic

20 John Haugeland Authentic Intentionality What does it take to “see” ?

21 What about Authentic Intentionality? The Haugeland Thesis: In order to “see”, you need to have a sense of social responsibility.

22 Cognition of one’s own mind and other’s mind

23 Gallup, GG (1970). Chimpanzees: Self recognition. Science, 167, 86-87.

24 In the mirror test, mirror gazing time is maximum in the transition period(social behavior to self-directed action) (Reportedly only humans, chimpanzees, Orang Utans, and dolphins pass the test)

26 Povinelli, D. J. & Eddy, T. J. (1996) What young chimpanzees know about seeing. Monographs of the Society for Research on Child Development, No 247, Vol 61. Do chimps know that others see?

27 Chimpanzees exhibit social behavior to the mirror images because they can’t perceive intentional states in others?
