Abstract
In Appearance & Explanation, Kevin McCain and Luca Moretti argue that phenomenal explanationism (PE) offers a superior account to phenomenal conservatism (PC) as to why seemings justify. One of their arguments for this position is that PE is in a better position to respond to skepticism than PC, since the latter faces the problem of reflective awareness while the former does not. I deny that PE has any such advantage. To the contrary, I argue that PC offers a superior response to skepticism, especially when it comes to the beliefs of non-reflective agents.
在《表象与解释》（Appearance & Explanation）一书中，凯文-麦凯恩（Kevin McCain）和卢卡-莫雷蒂（Luca Moretti）认为，现象解释论（PE）比现象保守主义（PC）更能说明表象为什么是合理的。他们支持这一立场的论据之一是，现象解释论比现象保守主义更能回应怀疑论，因为后者面临反思意识的问题，而前者则没有。我否认 PE 有这样的优势。相反，我认为 PC 对怀疑论的回应更胜一筹，尤其是在涉及非反思者的信念时。
