目標：1.啟發嘗試連結人類行為的事實，察覺並構思人類心智圖法。2.警告嘗試使用腦部斷層的現代科技來研究心智圖法的危險。方法論：文獻回顧及分析。討論：人類大腦的意識與自我意識功能可能源於他們的心智，心智加上思維能力、思考力、感知能力、情感、意志力及想像力。存在著兩個關鍵的論點：1.人類理智並不是均等的，心智圖法及大腦圖法也並不相同。2.這仍無法確定心智與大腦是如何與每個人相關聯的。 結果1：這篇論文證明了一般的背景資訊，接著研究理論的途徑。人類大腦的進化、人類心智－行為之間的關係、心智與身體的關係、提出經驗、大腦適應與文化、評價文化－大腦的互動、系統的考量生命倫理學的問題，其乃是有組織的論證。結論2：人類心智圖法，有時存有利益以致與文化及社會價值牴觸，道德未能被接受，作者認為此篇論文的科學證據得應用於主流哲學。

Objectives: 1] to enlighten the fact of attempting to relate the human behavior, consciousness, and ideas with the human mind mapping. 2] to warn readers of the current tendency in using modern technology of the brain scan and mapping in an attempt to reach the purpose of mind mapping. Methods: literature review and analysis Discussions: The conscious and self-conscious functions of the human brain may be referred to as the mind. The mind incorporates intellect, consciousness, thought, perception, emotion, will, and imagination. Two key arguments exist: 1) the human mind is not equal to ideas, and mind mapping and brain mapping are not the same. 2) It is not certain how the mind and brain are related with each other. Results: This article provides general background information. It then investigates theoretical approaches. Human brain evolution, the relationship between human mind and behavior, the mind-body relationship, experience and brain adaptability and culture are addressed. The culture-brain interaction is evaluated. Bioethical consideration is formulated. It is followed with organized arguments. Conclusions: Human mind mapping, beneficial at times, conflicts with cultural and social values. It may not be ethically acceptable. The author concludes that the scientific evidence of this article complies with the mainstream philosophy of science.
