Outline of Final Research Achievements |
This study argued the following points. (1) The best ontological theory for the anti-naturalist position of qualia is naive realism, which locates qualia as such that they are objective properties of things on the side of the world, even though being perspectival entities, and the knowledge argument is the best anti-naturalist argument because it shows exactly this. (2) The philosophical theory of perception that best fits the ontological theory of (1) is the multi-aspectistic direct perception theory, which holds that qualia such as in (1) are directly given in perception and sensation. (3)The multi-aspectistic direct perception theory in (2), when combined with the disjunctivism, can have better explanatory power than other theories of perception such as the sense-datum theory, the adverbial theory, and the intentional theory, and is therefore the best theory of perception.

Academic Significance and Societal Importance of the Research Achievements |
(1)本研究の成果は、クオリアの哲学や知覚の哲学において新しい知見をもたらすのみならず、自然主義的世界観と反自然主義的世界観の対立というより大きな文脈において、反自然主義の最も強力な体系的存在論的理論を構築するための土台をつくると考えられる。 (2)自然主義的な一元化の傾向が益々強まってきている現代において、反自然主義の考えを最も強力なものにすることで自然主義の妥当性を改めて問うことは、方法論的自然主義と存在論的自然主義の関係を改めて問うことに繋がり、延いては、哲学とはどのような知的営みであるのか、そもそも人間の知的営みとは一体何なのかという究極的な哲学的問いに繋がるとも考えられる。
