4 Conclusion

The defenders of IEM will try to find ways to interpret these data differently. It would not surprise me if what these data mean continues to be controversial. However, I hope that experiments like these and the discussions in the target paper will at least convince many researchers that sometimes it does make sense to ask Wittgenstein Questions (like WQ1 and WQ2 above). Both the sense of self-as-subject and IEM are open to empirical as well as philosophical investigation.
