Problemas con el empirismo estricto: lo públicamente observable y el empirismo experiencial interpretado por Alex Rosenberg y Galen Strawson [PDF]
The use of the word ‘empirical’ in the sciences has created an area of confusion in which it is taken to mean ‘publicly observable’. Although it is understandable, given the success of the sciences, that the use and thought behind the word ‘empirical’

Proprioceptive drift in the rubber hand illusion is intensified following 1 Hz TMS of the left EBA
The rubber hand illusion (RHI) is a paradigm used to induce an illusory feeling of owning a dummy hand through congruent multisensory stimulation. Thus, it can grant insights into how our brain represents our body as our own.

A fatal flaw: Positive leadership style research creates causal illusions
We argue and show empirically that constructs and measures of positive leadership styles, such as authentic, ethical, and servant leadership, are not veridical representations of leadership behaviors. Instead, these styles conflate behaviors with subjective evaluations of leaders.

Doing, Feeling, Meaning And Explaining [PDF]
It is “easy” to explain doing, “hard” to explain feeling. Turing has set the agenda for the easy explanation (though it will be a long time coming). I will try to explain why and how explaining feeling will not only be hard, but impossible.

Instruction on the Scientific Method Provides (Some) Protection Against Illusions of Causality
Abstract People tend to overestimate the efficacy of an ineffective treatment when they experience the treatment and its supposed outcome co-occurring frequently. This is referred to as the outcome density effect. Here, we attempted to improve the accuracy of participants’ assessments of an ineffective treatment by instructing them about

Neural Network Underlying Recovery from Disowned Bodily States Induced by the Rubber Hand Illusion
We used functional magnetic resonance imaging to investigate how causal influences between brain regions during the rubber hand illusion (RHI) are modulated by tactile and visual stimuli.
