Abstract

Neural processing is often categorized as externally or internally focused. Though commonly treated as poles of a single dimension, we delineate how the terms 'external' and 'internal' refer to independent concepts at the levels of cognitive modes, representational contents, and sensory origins. Separating these levels brings theoretical clarity and opens unexplored questions.

消除大脑外部和内部过程的维度歧义。

神经处理通常分为外部聚焦和内部聚焦。虽然通常被视为单一维度的两极，但我们描述了术语“外部”和“内部”如何在认知模式、表征内容和感官起源的层面上指代独立的概念。分离这些层次带来了理论上的清晰度，并打开了未探索的问题。
