幻肢痛现象自十九世纪后期被发现以来,它的作用机制目前并不十分清楚,也没有非常有效的治疗方法。但是这种现象对于认识论研究来说却提供了一个很好的视角。利用心理内容理论可以很好地解释幻肢痛现象,以及心理内容的表征机制,同时也能加深我们对人类认知之谜的了解。 Phantom limb pain phenomenon has been discovered since the late nineteenth century, its mechanism of action is not very clear, there is no very effective treatment. However, this phenomenon provides a good perspective for epistemological research. The use of psychological content theory can well explain the phenomenon of phantom limb pain, as well as the characterization of psychological content, but also deepen our understanding of the mystery of human cognition.
