The investigation of top-down effects on perception requires a rigorous definition of what qualifies as perceptual to begin with. Whereas Firestone & Scholl's (F&S's) phenomenological demarcation of perception from cognition appeals to intuition, we argue that the dividing line is best attained at the functional level. We exemplify how this approach facilitates scrutinizing putative interactions between judging and perceiving.
要研究自上而下效应对知觉的影响，首先需要严格定义什么是知觉。虽然 Firestone 和 Scholl（F&S）的现象学方法将知觉与认知区分开来诉诸于直觉，但我们认为，这条分界线最好在功能层面上确定。我们举例说明了这种方法如何有助于仔细研究判断和知觉之间可能存在的相互作用。
