Philosophy Of Mind Questions
The problem of self-knowledge refers to the challenge of understanding and gaining knowledge about one's own mental states, thoughts, and experiences. It raises questions about how individuals come to know and have access to their own minds, and whether this knowledge is reliable or subjective. The problem arises from the unique position individuals have in relation to their own minds, as they are both the subject and object of their own experiences. It involves exploring the nature of consciousness, introspection, and the limitations and biases that may affect our understanding of ourselves.
