    RIGIDIZATION OF MENTAL IMAGES AS DYSFUNCTION OF PICTURES RECOGNITION

    H. R. Hovhannisyan, A. A. Manukyan
    View PDF
    Abstract

    This article illustrates the unique effect of human visual perception: during the recognition of images specially distorted by a computer program, the subject spontaneously “creates and strengthens” the imaginary contours of the presented stimulus material. Piloting experimentally, we found that sometimes during the observation of the process of gradual clarification of completely distorted pictures, 50 the recognition by the subjects is complicated, because the signs of a previously fancied imaginary contour are enhanced. The observer seemed to be “under the influence of an fancy imaginative scenario”, as a result of which the “contour attribution” retained its increasing power, thereby making the mental image rigid. As a result, the recognition function of the gradually becoming clearer image was temporarily blocked (disordered).

    METHODOLOGICAL BACKGROUND AND FOUNDATIONS OF THE NONMATERIAL THEORY OF THE PSYCHE

    M. M. Reshetnikov
    View PDF
    Abstract

    The problem of the psyche and consciousness has been the most mysterious one for a few thousand years and is still unresolved. It has been almost forgotten that Aristotle considered human psyche a structure that is not bound to the body. This idea did not persist, though. It was Hippocrates who ruined it and declared a different concept, which prevailed for many centuries, that the brain is a repository of all mental processes. Even such a genius as Rene Descartes took Hippocrates’s idea for granted and spent many months in attempts to find memory and emotions in gyrus and ventricles of the brain. This path – the search of material structures of the psyche – was followed by I.M. Sechenov, I.P.Pavlov and many others. Later, many other mistaken ideas were born, declared new and revolutionary ones and died prematurely. However, not only ideas died, but also patients, who were treated by methods developed on the basis of these hypotheses. The author formulates the idea of the brain as the biological interface and proves a non-material theory of the psyche, which is a discovery that requires a change in basic paradigms of human sciences.
