Focusing on the essence of experience, the author explores how phenomenological analysis reveals the fundamental conditions that enable conscious activities like imagining and remembering. Drawing from Husserl's work, the study emphasizes the reflective nature of these mental activities, independent of their origins. Additionally, the author investigates cognitive developmental psychology to understand how children engage in imagining versus viewing pictures, conducting a pilot study that highlights the nuanced relationship between these activities.
