phenomenalist

To the phenomenalist, objects of any kind must be related to experience.

Another criticism is that the phenomenalist can give no satisfactory explanation of the permanent possibilities of experience.

Perceptual realist, phenomenalist.

Although it is tempting to do so, non-conservation cannot be assimilated to the phenomenalist tendency shown up in Martin Braine's experiment.

This situation would be the phenomenalist's ideal; all such non-observation statements would be strongly verifiable, and sceptical doubts about them shown to be impossible.

They knew the realist option but did not take it as a way out of a social impasse, because, I would argue, the phenomenalist tendency of thought is too strong.

This tendency to give a realist answer when we request a phenomenalist (appearance-based) answer -which Piaget called 'intellectual realism'- is also very easy to see in children's drawings.

John Shook has said, "Chauncey Wright also deserves considerable credit, for as both Peirce and James recall, it was Wright who demanded a phenomenalist and fallibilist empiricism as an alternative to rationalistic speculation."

Indeed, just as Berkeley's immaterialism foreshadows the phenomenalist theory of perception developed by the so-called Logical Empiricists of this century, so his view, according to which the aim of science is not to provide explanations of nature's regularities but only to arrive at concise and useful descriptions of them, foreshadows their instrumentalism.
