Phenomenal Property
Revision as of 09:21, 31 August 2020 by Johannes Kleiner (talk | contribs)
(Nida-Rümelin, 2010)[1] proposes the following definition.
- Definition
- A property is a phenomenal property if and only if having or not having that property at a given moment constitutes a difference in the phenomenology of the overall state of the subject concerned.
This definition is based on the assumption that "we have a quite clear intuitive grasp of what it is to constitute a difference for the phenomenology of the overall state a subject finds itself in at a given moment."[1] The instantiation of a phenomenal property so defined "partially characterizes what it is like for the subject to be in its (his or her) present state".[1]
