| Mar 22, 2020 at 14:25 | comment | added | Guy Inchbald | I think you are confusing the quale of a mistake with a quale which is itself a mistake. The former accompanies every conscious mistake, the latter requires some explanation as to how a particular quale might falsely represent a particular conscious experience. | |
| Aug 2, 2016 at 15:30 | comment | added | viuser | @AlexanderSKing: It seems that way at first. And we surely have different qualia in the sauna case. But what about a color shade illusion with a small effect? In the first one, I believe that I see a difference: the red (qualia) feels different. But maybe I just imagine that? Because you don't see a difference. What about a hypochondriac who believes he is going color blind. "My colors suddenly feel washed out." he says. Does his psychological state influence his qualia or do the qualia stay the same and he just imagines that they changed? | |

| Aug 1, 2016 at 19:17 | comment | added | Alexander S King | @wolf-revo-cats the second example is clearer, but I still don't get the point being illustrated? A 30°C temperature outside is going to feel different after I exit a 50°C Sauna than the way it is going to feel after I exit a refrigerated room at 10°C, how does this make me "mistaken" about the qualia of heat? | |

the asker indicated in the comments that the very notion of "mistaken" qualia could use explanation

| Aug 1, 2016 at 16:14 | comment | added | Alexander S King | The two patches of red seem exactly the same to me, surrounding pattern not-withstanding. I don't get the point? | |

| Aug 1, 2016 at 14:22 | comment | added | user3017 | @nir. I would like to see a stronger example in any sense that would make the argument seem plausible. How about whatever sense that Dennett might have been referring to when he said the following: "The idea that people might be mistaken about their own qualia is at the heart of the ongoing confusion..." Is there any way to make any of Dennett's arguments seem convincing? | |
| Aug 1, 2016 at 10:15 | comment | added | nir | Would you be so kind as to explain as coherently as possible and in detail what could "being mistaken about qualia" possibly mean? | |
