categories. That is, since cue validity is the probability of being in some category given some property, this probability will increase (or at worst not decrease) as the size of the category increases (e.g. the probability of being an animal given the property of flying is greater than the probability of bird given flying, since there must be more ...

Philosophia, 2014
Recently Carrie S. Jenkins formulated an epistemology of mathematics, or rather arithmetic, respecting apriorism, empiricism, and realism. Central is an idea of concept grounding.

The Psychology of Concepts and Concept Formation

1994
In the preceding chapter, we saw that the design of a representation system requires choices on two different levels. First, there is the level of representation formalism, i.e., the choice of syntax and semantics for the representation. Then, there is the equally important choice of a representation language, i.e., the vocabulary to be made available ...
