Error replication as an instructional strategy in simulation‐based procedural learning

Medical Education, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Errors are an inevitable part of clinical learning, yet procedural training commonly emphasises error avoidance. This study examined the effect of deliberate replication of predefined procedural errors (Error Replication; ER), compared with error avoidance training (EAT), on post‐test performance, retention and transfer in surgical ...

Error detection is not necessary for representation

Mind &Language, EarlyView.
Some philosophers have recently proposed an error detection condition (EDC) for representation, such that for R$$ R $$ to be a representation for system S$$ S $$, S$$ S $$ must be capable of detecting errors in tokenings of R$$ R $$. We argue that this condition is unmotivated, and that it is too strong. We show that theories of representation that are

Generics favor stability

Mind &Language, EarlyView.
Humans seek to predict, explain, and control their environments. Generalizations—like those expressed by “children like candy” and “cigarettes cause cancer”—provide one resource to facilitate these tasks. We develop a proposal tying the acceptability judgments of generics to the psychological functions of generalizations.

Looking for trouble: A common threat‐detection mechanism underlying pain, fear, and anxiety

Mind &Language, EarlyView.
I put forward a novel cognitive architecture for pain, fear, and anxiety, according to which these three capacities are underpinned by a common threat‐detection mechanism. This mechanism takes information about potential threats as input, assesses whether the threat is actual and, if it deems it is, outputs a threat representation.

Haecceitism and Symmetry-Breaking: Things, Time, and Powers

Ergo, An Open Access Journal of Philosophy
According to anti-haecceitism, facts about particular things are modally fixed by qualitative matters. According to qualitativism, such facts are metaphysically second-rate, perhaps because grounded in qualitative matters.

The determination of what is said and what is implied

Mind &Language, EarlyView.
Is what is said determined by syntax, conventional meaning, and select aspects of context? This thesis—semanticity—seems plausible because what is said can diverge from both what the speaker means and what the addressee understands, and because ordinary speakers know what is said when presented with a novel sentence‐context pair.

A Counterexample to a Conjecture of Barr

Theory and Applications of Categories, 1996
Summary: We discuss two versions of a conjecture attributed to \textit{M. Barr} [cf. \textit{M. Gerstenhaber} and \textit{S. D. Schack}, J. Pure Appl. Algebra 48, 229-247 (1987; Zbl 0671.13007), p. 232]. The Harrison cohomology of a commutative algebra is known to coincide with the André/Quillen cohomology over a field of characteristic zero but not in

Nativism, Sons of the Soil and Autochthony: On Internal Migration and the Politics of Belonging

Nations and Nationalism, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT There is a longstanding and global history of fierce opposition to internal migration across regions. Yet despite the salience of this issue, there is a relative dearth of scholarship on the politics around domestic population movements. This paper critically engages three interrelated concepts in conversation: nativism, sons of the soil and ...

Why Are All the Sets All the Sets?

Noûs, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Necessitists about set theory think that the pure sets exists, and are the way they are, as a matter of necessity. They cannot explain why the sets (de rebus) are all the sets. This constitutes the Ur‐Objection against necessitism; it is the primary motivation cited by potentialists about set theory.

A Persisting Equivalence

Noûs, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT In several articles, McCall and Lowe have claimed that endurantism and perdurantism are “equivalent.” From this, they conclude that there is no fact of the matter as to whether we live in an endurantist world or in a perdurantist world. In this paper, I use the notion of Morita equivalence to show in which precise sense, McCall and Lowe's ...
