In their recent paper, Parnia and colleagues propose a new label for the near-death experience (NDE): recalled experience of death. They claimed NDEs are "authentic" only when an objective danger is present and that authentic NDEs have a proven core phenomenology. We consider that these claims are insufficiently supported by empirical data. NDEs appear as a continuum of heterogeneous experiences of consciousness precipitated by the disjunction of processes usually combined in normal mental activity. The "core phenomenology" of NDEs is also opened to several criticisms. Closeness to "real" death does not appear to be a decisive criterion for characterizing NDEs. The author's adhesion to Raymond Moody's NDE model produces a biased partition of this field of research that is unable to provide the basis for a consensus.
在他们最近的论文中,帕尼亚和同事们为濒死体验(NDE)提出了一个新的标签:回忆起死亡的体验。他们声称,只有当存在客观危险时,濒死体验才是“真实的”,并且经过验证,具有真实的濒死体验有一个已被证明的核心现象学。我们认为,这些说法没有得到经验数据的充分支持。濒死体验似乎是意识的连续体,由通常在正常心理活动中结合在一起的过程的分离引发。濒死体验的“核心现象学”也受到了多种批评。接近“真正的”死亡似乎并不是描述濒死体验的决定性标准。作者对雷蒙德·穆迪的濒死体验模型的坚持,导致了对这一研究领域的有偏见的划分,无法为达成共识提供基础。
