, 2019 Što je vjerovanje? Da bi se odgovorilo na ovo pitanje, pokušat će se rekonstruirati oblikovanje-vjerovanja. Ono otkriva isprepletenost dviju dimenzija, a na gornjem se kraju nalazi istina kao objektivni teleološki cilj oblikovanja-vjerovanja.

How generics obscure the logic of conditionals
Mind &Language, EarlyView.This paper discusses counter‐examples to modus ponens and modus tollens involving modals and quantificational adverbs, and presents new counter‐examples with generic conditionals. We argue that the counter‐examples are spurious, and are explained by the domain‐restricting effects of if‐clauses.

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.

Mind &Language, EarlyView.Why do we care about getting mental state attributions right? A common answer is that folk psychology is a proto‐scientific theory that allows us to predict and explain the behavior of physical systems. I argue that this position is inconsistent with one of the central practices in which attribution of desire occurs: to advocate for our interests and ...

Redeeming Relative Value: Indexicality and Consequentializing Agent‐Centered Norms
Noûs, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Robert Nozick doubted forms of consequentialism that employ so‐called “agent‐relative value” because he found them “gimmicky.” This doubt has been sharpened by Don Regan, Mark Schroeder, and others into the objection that agent‐relative value lacks the practical importance we associate with good simpliciter.

Quantifiers for a Modal Future
Philosophical Perspectives, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Future auxiliaries present a challenge to the classical analysis of modal expressions as existential or universal quantifiers over a contextually provided set of possible worlds: these expressions come with a distinct modal flavor, but their interaction with negation and the fact that future judgments come in degrees of confidence is ...

We address the issue of defining a semantics for deontic argumentation that supports weak permission. Some recent results show that grounded semantics do not support weak permission when there is a conflict between two obligations. We provide a definition of Deontic Argumentation Theory that accounts for weak permission, and we recall the result about ...
