Bridging the gap of brain and experience – Converging Neurophenomenology with Spatiotemporal Neuroscience

Neuroscience & Biobehavioral Reviews, Journal Year: 2025, Volume and Issue: unknown, P. 106139 - 106139

Published: April 1, 2025

Neuroscience faces the challenge of connecting brain and mind, with mind manifesting in first-person experience while brain's neural activity can only be investigated third-person perspective. To connect mental states, neurophenomenology provides a methodological tool kit for systematically linking subjective objective observations activity. However, beyond providing systematic strategy ('disciplined circularity'), it leaves open how are related among themselves, independent our strategy. The recently introduced Spatiotemporal suggests that share commonly underlying feature as their "common currency", notably analogous spatiotemporal dynamics. Can inform to allow deeper more substantiative connection activity? goal paper is show Neurophenomenology converged integrated each other gain better understanding brain-mind connection. We describe convergence on theoretical grounds which, subsequently, illustrated by empirical examples like self, meditation, depression. In conclusion, we propose integration provide complementary insights, enrich both fields, allows connection, opens door developing novel approaches investigation.

Scale for time and space experience in anxiety (STEA): Phenomenology and its clinical relevance

Journal of Affective Disorders, Journal Year: 2024, Volume and Issue: 358, P. 192 - 204

Published: May 2, 2024

Anxiety is a pervasive emotional state where, phenomenologically, subjects often report changes in their experience of time and space. However, systematic quantified examination space terms self-report scale still missing which eventually could also be used for clinical differential diagnosis. Based on historical phenomenological literature patients' subjective reports, we here introduce, first step, the Scale Time Space Experience (STEA) smaller sample 19 with anxiety disorders and, second validate its shorter version (cSTEA) larger 48 subjects. The main findings are (i) high convergent divergent validity STEA both Beck Inventory (BAI) (r = 0.7325; p < 0.001) Depression (BDI) 0.7749; 0.0001), as well spontaneous mind wandering (MWS) 0.7343; deliberate (MWD) 0.1152; > 0.05), (ii) statistical feature selection shows 8 key items future usage focusing temporal spatial constriction, (iii) effects (i.e., cSTEA scores) level mediated by degree (MWS), (iv) allows differentiating levels from severity comorbid depressive symptoms, (v) significant reduction scores after therapeutic intervention (breathing therapy). Together, our study introduces novel fully highly valid instrument, STEA, measuring time-space experiences anxiety. Further develop assessing valid, quick, simple way diagnosis, monitoring
