The Conjunctive View about Perceptual Justification
As to the problem that how perceptual experience provides immediate justification for perceptual belief,there are two competing theories in con-temporary epistemology,that is,phenomenalism and factivism.Phenomenalism holds that perceptual experience provides immediate justification in virtue of its phenomenal character,while factivism holds that it is in virtue of factive content.But phenomenalism is conflicted with"the good-bad case"prob-lem,and factivism confronted with counterexamples such as the excellent super-blindsighter and the super-duper-blindsighter.The conjunctive view which holds that perceptual experience provides immediate justification in virtue of its phenomenal character and factive content,can avoid the problems both for phenomenalism and factivism.
