Enriching deontic logic [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Logic and Computation, 2018
It is well-known that systems of action deontic logic emerging from a standard analysis of permission in terms of possibility of doing an action without incurring in a violation of the law are subject to paradoxes. In general, paradoxes are acknowledged as such if we have intuitions telling us that things should be different.

Automated Reasoning over Deontic Action Logics with Finite Vocabularies [PDF]

open access: yesElectronic Proceedings in Theoretical Computer Science, 2014
In this paper we investigate further the tableaux system for a deontic action logic we presented in previous work. This tableaux system uses atoms (of a given boolean algebra of action terms) as labels of formulae, this allows us to embrace parallel ...

Communicative Justice in Later Life: A Critical Discourse Study and Bioethics-of-Vulnerability Analysis of Older Adults' Primary Care in Spain. [PDF]

open access: yesNurs Inq
ABSTRACT Older adults' experiences of primary care are shaped not only by service capacity but by the language and routines through which access and care are organised. Using a qualitative Critical Discourse Studies (CDS) approach informed by the bioethics of vulnerability, we analysed interviews and focus groups with 12 community‐dwelling older adults

An Algebraic Approach for Action Based Default Reasoning [PDF]

open access: yesElectronic Proceedings in Theoretical Computer Science, 2019
Often, we assume that an action is permitted simply because it is not explicitly forbidden; or, similarly, that an action is forbidden simply because it is not explicitly permitted.

Actors, actions, and initiative in normative system specification [PDF]

open access: yes, 1993
The logic of norms, called deontic logic, has been used to specify normative constraints for information systems. For example, one can specify in deontic logic the constraints that a book borrowed from a library should be returned within three weeks, and

Avoiding deontic explosion by contextually restricting aggregation [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
In this paper, we present an adaptive logic for deontic conflicts, called P2.1(r), that is based on Goble's logic SDLaPe-a bimodal extension of Goble's logic P that invalidates aggregation for all prima facie obligations.

open access: yes, 2022
This paper develops an account of the meaning of `ought', and the distinction between weak necessity modals (`ought', `should') and strong necessity modals (`must', `have to').

Deontic Logic, Mental odels, and Wason Selection Task

open access: yesPrincipia: An International Journal of Epistemology, 2014
A problem related to theWason selection task is that only some thematic versions of it are executed correctly. Fodor raises the thesis that the versions that are adequately solved are those that refer to deontic situations.

The Challenge of the K-Principle in Deontic Logic (and Well Beyond)

open access: yesPhenomenology and Mind, 2017
I go through various arguments why the K-principle (aka Distributivity Axiom), O(p→q)→(Op→Oq), a cornerstone of all deontic logic as the latter is standardly conceived, is of little use for the logical analysis of real-life deontic discourse.
