Abstract The subjective features of psychological phenomena have been studied intensively in experimental science in recent years. Although various methods have been proposed to identify subjective features of psychological phenomena, there are elusive subjective features such as the spatiotemporal structure of experience, which are difficult to capture without some additional methodological tools. We propose a new experimental method to address this challenge, which we call the contrast-based experimental phenomenological method (CEP). CEP proceeds in four steps: (i) front-loading phenomenology, (ii) online second-personal interview, (iii) questionnaire survey, and (iv) hypotheses testing. It differs from other experimental phenomenological methods in that it takes advantage of phenomenal contrasts in collecting phenomenological data. In this paper, we verify the validity and productivity of this method by applying it to binocular rivalry (BR). The study contributes to empirical research on BR in three respects. First, it provides additional evidence for existing propositions about the subjective features of BR: e.g. the proposition that the temporal dynamics of the experience depend upon subject-dependent parameters such as attentional change. Second, it deepens our understanding of the spatiotemporal structures of the transition phase of BR. Third, it elicits new research questions about depth experience and individual differences in BR. The presence of such contributions demonstrates the validity and productivity of CEP.

探索心理现象主观特征的实验现象学新方法:在双眼竞争中的应用

摘要近年来在实验科学中对心理学现象的主观特征进行了深入研究。尽管已经提出了各种方法来识别心理现象的主观特征,但是仍然存在诸如经验的时空结构之类的难以捉摸的主观特征,如果没有一些其他方法论工具就很难捕获这些主观特征。我们提出了一种新的实验方法来应对这一挑战,我们称之为基于对比的实验现象学方法(CEP)。CEP分为四个步骤:(i)前瞻性现象学;(ii)在线第二人称面试;(iii)问卷调查;以及(iv)假设检验。它与其他实验现象学方法的不同之处在于,它在收集现象学数据时利用了惊人的对比。在本文中,我们通过将其应用于双目竞争(BR)来验证该方法的有效性和生产率。该研究有助于从三个方面对BR进行实证研究。首先,它为有关BR的主观特征的现有命题提供了额外的证据:例如,经验的时间动态依赖于依赖于主题的参数(例如注意力变化)的命题。其次,它加深了我们对BR过渡期的时空结构的理解。第三,它引发了有关BR的深度经验和个体差异的新研究问题。这些贡献的存在证明了CEP的有效性和生产力。该研究有助于从三个方面对BR进行实证研究。首先,它为有关BR的主观特征的现有命题提供了额外的证据:例如,经验的时间动态依赖于依赖于主题的参数(例如注意力变化)的命题。其次,它加深了我们对BR过渡期的时空结构的理解。第三,它引起了有关BR的深度经验和个体差异的新研究问题。这些贡献的存在证明了CEP的有效性和生产力。该研究有助于从三个方面对BR进行实证研究。首先,它为有关BR的主观特征的现有命题提供了额外的证据:例如,经验的时间动态依赖于依赖于主题的参数(例如注意力变化)的命题。其次,它加深了我们对BR过渡期的时空结构的理解。第三,它引发了有关BR的深度经验和个体差异的新研究问题。这些贡献的存在证明了CEP的有效性和生产力。它加深了我们对BR过渡阶段的时空结构的理解。第三,它引发了有关BR的深度经验和个体差异的新研究问题。这些贡献的存在证明了CEP的有效性和生产力。它加深了我们对BR过渡阶段的时空结构的理解。第三,它引发了有关BR的深度经验和个体差异的新研究问题。这些贡献的存在证明了CEP的有效性和生产力。
