What is Naïve Realism, Hallucination, and Causation: A New Response to the Screening Off Problem about?
This paper sets out a novel response to the 'screening off' problem for na€ ıve realism. The aim is to resist the claim (which many na€ ıve realists accept) that the kind of experience involved in hallucinating also occurs during perception, by arguing that there are causal constraints that must be met if an hallucinatory experience is to occur, ones that are never met in perceptual cases. Notably, given this response, it turns out that, contra current orthodoxy, na€ ıve realists need not adopt any particular view about the psychological nature of hallucinatory experience to handle the screening off problem. Consequently, room opens up for na€ ıve realists to endorse whatever theory of hallucinatory experience seems to best capture the distinctive nature of such episodes.
