The paper addresses the problem of imaginative resistance in science, that is, why and under what circumstances imagination sometimes resists certain scenarios. In the first part, the paper presents and discusses two accounts concerning the problem and relevant for the main thesis of this study. The first position is that of Gendler (Journal of Philosophy 97:55–81, 2000), (Gendler, in: Nichols (ed) The Architecture of the Imagination: New essays on pretence, possibility and fiction, Oxford University Press, New York, 2006a), (Gendler & Liao, in: Gibson, Carroll (eds) The routledge companion to philosophy of literature, Routledge, New York, 2016), according to which imaginative resistance mainly concerns evaluative scenarios, presenting deviant moral attitudes. The second account examined is that of Kim et al. (in: Cova, Réhault (eds) Advances in experimental philosophy of aesthetics, Bloomsbury, London, 2018), who insisted on the link between imaginative resistance on the one hand and counterfactual and counterdescriptive scenarios on the other. In the light of both theories, this paper discusses the importance of addressing the problem of imaginative resistance in the scientific enterprise in the light of some mechanisms of embodied simulation, based on the activity of mirror neurons and investigated within the framework of the Embodied Simulation Theory.

这篇论文解决了科学中的想象力抗拒问题，也就是说，为什么以及在什么情况下，想象力有时会抗拒某些场景。在第一部分，本文提出并讨论了两个与该问题相关且与本研究的主要论文相关的说明。第一个位置是 Gendler (Journal of Philosophy 97:55–81, 2000), (Gendler, in: Nichols (ed) The Architecture of the Imagination: New essays on pretence,可能性和虚构，牛津大学出版社，纽约, 2006a), (Gendler & Liao, in: Gibson, Carroll (eds) The routledge partner to manifest of writing, Routledge, New York, 2016)，据此，想象性抵抗主要涉及评估场景，呈现出离经叛道的道德态度。审查的第二个帐户是 Kim 等人的帐户。（在：科瓦，Réhault (eds) Advances in Experimental Philosophy ofesthetics, Bloomsbury, London, 2018)，他坚持认为一方面是想象力的抵抗，另一方面是反事实和反描述的情景之间的联系。结合这两种理论，本文根据体现模拟的一些机制，基于镜像神经元的活动，并在体现模拟理论的框架内进行研究，讨论了解决科学事业中想象力抗拒问题的重要性。 .
