Consciousness - Bewusstheit [German]

Japanese: 意識性 - いしきせい（英語表記）Bewusstheit[ドイツ]

A term used in psychology. For example, when we hear the word "apple," we immediately know its meaning, but we do not visualize a round, red object or feel its sour taste in our mouths. The German psychologist N. Ach called this state of being aware of an object all at once, without the mediation of mental images or the senses, "consciousness." It is also known as "imageless thinking" or "non-intuitive thinking," and this pathological form is known as "substantial consciousness." [Miyamoto Tadao]

心理学の用語。たとえば“リンゴ”という語を聞けば，その意味が即座にわかるが，その際，赤く丸い外形を思い浮かべたり，すっぱい味を口に感じているわけではない。このように，心像や感覚の媒介なしに事物が一挙に意識される場合をドイツの心理学者アッハN.Achは〈意識性〉と呼んだ。〈無心像思考〉とか〈非直観的思考〉という名称も用いられ，この病理的な形態は〈実体的意識性〉として知られる。【宮本忠雄】
