Discussion on the use of "visual threshold" or "vision" in legal research
At present, in academic research, "visual threshold" or "vision" is often used as the theme of the paper to show that the theme of the paper is studied from a certain angle and vision.

For example, Zhou Chun. Corporate resolutions from the perspective of organic law and their legal application [J]. China Law, 2019 (06):139-160; Chen. Optimization path of corporate resolution rules from the perspective of procedural justice [J]. Research on Law and Commerce, 2019,36 (01):18129, etc. , not listed here.

In Baidu Chinese, "visual threshold" has two meanings: 1. It can produce maximum and minimum visual stimulus intensity.

2. It refers to the field of vision: enriching tourists. Also as a vision. Therefore, it is considered that "visual threshold" and "visual field" can be universal.

However, when the author pre-defended his thesis, the defense teacher pointed out that "horizon" should be used instead of "visual threshold". Therefore, this paper aims to explore the difference between "visual threshold" and "horizon" and whether "visual threshold" can be used to express the meaning of angle in academic research.

First, literally, "threshold" refers to the scope, such as waters and sea areas; "Threshold" refers to boundaries and critical values, such as thresholds; So "visual field" refers to the range that the eyes can see, while "threshold" refers to the minimum stimulus that the organism feels, which is often used in physiology, medicine and psychology, so "visual threshold" refers to the minimum stimulus intensity to produce vision. So "vision" is "vision", and "visual threshold" emphasizes boundary and intensity.

Secondly, from the origin and evolution of the two words, we can see that the word "horizon" has not become an independent vocabulary in ancient Chinese. For example, in the Song and Ming Dynasties, "looking around" and "long horizon" were commonly used, that is, "verb-object relationship"; Liu Jinzao used the word "Shi" many times when recording documents in "A General Examination of Continued Documents in Qing Dynasty". Therefore, in fact, the word "horizon" only had an independent noun attribute in the late Qing Dynasty and the Republic of China. There is no word "visual threshold" in ancient Chinese, but "threshold" in ancient Chinese is used to express the meaning of boundaries and ranges such as thresholds and portals. The reason why "threshold" appears is translation, such as translating threshold into "threshold", such as hearing threshold and pain threshold; Therefore, as a noun, the word "visual threshold" appears later than "vision", and "visual threshold" is more of a disciplinary feature, such as being used in psychology and medicine.

To sum up, if we want to express the meaning of perspective and scope, we should use "horizon". In addition, they are not heterographs. For example, in the Dictionary of Modern Chinese Standards edited by Li Xingjian (Foreign Language Teaching and Research Press, 1 Edition, 2004, 20 10/Edition), it is explained that "visual threshold" should not be written when explaining "visual field".

"Visual threshold" and "vision" are homonyms, that is, two words A and B have synonyms, and the other word has homonyms. "Visual threshold" includes "vision", which should be used in scientific terms, philosophical terms and general application fields.

Scholars have sorted out the word "visual threshold" in the sixth edition of Modern Chinese Dictionary, and think that "visual threshold" and "visual threshold" were not abnormal words at first, but now they have become a group of abnormal words with the development of language.

As can be seen from the above:

There was only the form of the word "visual threshold" in the 1970s and 1980s. After 1990s, the dictionary added "also as horizon" after the definition of "horizon", and regarded them as congruent heterographs. After 2005, Xianhan regarded them as pregnant aliens. From the point of view of * * *, the sixth edition is the best way to deal with it: two word forms are written at the same time, and "visual threshold" is the standard word form when making scientific terms; When expressing the meaning of "vision", take "vision" as the standard word form; The second meaning of "visual threshold" is treated as "the same as visual field", which shows the relationship between them well.

It is believed that "horizon" and "visual threshold" should be treated separately. "Visual threshold" itself is a scientific term, such as applied to biology, medicine, psychology and so on. However, with the development of language, there is a phenomenon of generalization, which breaks through the original scope of professional semantics and extends the meaning of "horizon" in writing.

It is believed that both "visual threshold" and "visual field" have the meaning of visual field, but there are differences.

First, from the origin of characters, the original meaning of domain is "region", and later it is extended to the meaning of country, burial place, border and residence. Later, it was extended to abstract mathematical concepts in modern times, such as "scope"; The original meaning of "threshold" is threshold, and then the meaning of "boundary" is derived from threshold. From the etymology of "domain" and "threshold", it is concluded that these two words have the meaning of boundary and scope.

Second, examine "horizon" and "visual threshold". The Chinese Dictionary explains vision: ① "the scope of vision" ② refers to the field of thought or knowledge. Both of these words are used to express the meaning of "vision", that is, to analyze practical problems from a certain theoretical perspective. In addition to the first meaning usage of "vision", the second situation is to mark the social background as the horizon; The third situation is to study a small problem, but it is impossible to abandon the big problem analysis behind the small problem, so the format of "small problem research from the perspective of big problems" is generally adopted; However, the "horizon" mentioned in philosophy (horizon is the framework or vision in which a person realizes or understands) cannot be written as "horizon". The concept of "horizon" first appeared in Husserl's philosophical works, and he put forward two concepts: "inner horizon" and "outer horizon".

Therefore, the so-called "seeing" is not only related to the scope of "seeing" with the naked eye, but also related to the place where the spirit "sees". Therefore, as a philosophical concept, horizon can also be translated as "viewing the field". The "visual threshold" indicates both the meaning of the visual field and the "critical value"; "Visual threshold" refers to a threshold (threshold intensity), which refers to the minimum stimulus intensity required to release a behavioral response. "

It is considered that "visual threshold" and "visual threshold" are not a group of heteromorphic words, but words with the same initials, finals, tones and meanings (meaning the same reason, color and grammar) but different writing forms. Although "visual threshold" and "visual threshold" both mean "vision", they have different meanings, so this is the case.

To sum up, although both "visual threshold" and "visual field" have the meaning of visual field, the former is often used in medicine, biology and so on. , while the latter is often used in philosophy, etc. In addition, the frequency of "horizon" is higher than that of "visual threshold", which contains not only the meaning of vision, but also the meaning of intensity. Therefore, if we want to discuss it from a certain angle in legal research, we should use "horizon" instead of "visual threshold" for the topic selection of the thesis.
