摘　　要：认知边界问题是当前认知科学研究中的难点之一。既往关于此问题的探论主要涉及内在主义与外在主义两种对立观点之间的辩争。尽管二者后期在一定程度上趋向于调和,但各自仍存在无法克服的理论困境。新近崛起的预测加工理论为重审认知边界问题提供了一种新的致思理路。在预测认知框架下,基于变分自由能原理,通过援引马尔可夫毯概念,可在一定意义上超越内在主义与外在主义解释的哲学争辩,以一种折衷的整合主义立场对自组织生物系统的认知边界做出全新的阐释。The problem of the bounds of cognition is one of the difficulties in current cognitive science research.Previous research on this issue mainly involves the debate between the two opposing views of internalism and exter⁃nalism.Although they tend to reconcile to a certain extent in the later stages,there are still insuperable theoretical dilemmas.The newly emerging theory of predictive processing provides a new way of thinking about the problem of the bounds of cognition.In the framework of predictive cognition,based on the variational free energy principle and the concept of Markov blanket,we can transcend the philosophical debate between internalist and externalist expla⁃nations in a certain sense,and give a new interpretation of the bounds of cognition of self-organizing biological sys⁃tems from a compromising and integrationist standpoint.
