If Intuitions Must Be Evidential then Philosophy is in Big Trouble
Studia Philosophica Estonica, 2009 Many philosophers claim that intuitions are evidential. Yet it is hard to see how introspecting one's mental states could provide evidence for such synthetic truths as those concerning, for example, the abstract and the counterfactual.

A computational theory of dispositions [PDF]
Proceedings of the 22nd annual meeting on Association for Computational Linguistics -, 1984 Summary: A disposition may be interpreted as a proposition which is preponderantly, but not necessarily always, true. In this sense, birds can fly is a disposition, as are the propositions Swedes are blond, snow is white, and slimness is attractive. An idea which underlies the theory described in this article is that a disposition may be viewed as a ...

Do we sense modalities with our sense modalities?1 [PDF]
, 2011 It has been widely assumed that we do not perceive dispositional properties. I argue that there are two ways of interpreting this assumption. On the first, extensional, interpretation whether we perceive dispositions depends on a complex set of ...

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.Rapid γ/neutron discrimination through PSD is achieved in liquid droplet containing nanostructured polymeric scintillator where a TTA‐active dye is dissolved. The inclusion of a properly selected and dosed sensitizer metalated porphyrin enhances discrimination sensitivity and speed by doubling the density of annihilating triplets and increasing the ...

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.Inspired by natural silicified wood, a biomimetic mineralized chitin‐derived aerogel is constructed. It can withstand 81 000 times its own weight, and its backside temperature is 130.4°C after exposure to ∼1300°C butane flame for 600 s, exhibiting high‐strength, fire‐resistance, and super thermal‐insulation properties.

CAUSATION, DISPOSITIONS, AND PHYSICAL OCCASIONALISM
Zygon, 2017 Even though theistic philosophers and scientists agree that God created, sustains, and providentially governs the physical universe and even though much has been published in general regarding divine action, what is needed is a fine‐grained ...

Intellectual humility and argumentation [PDF]
, 2020 In this chapter I argue that intellectual humility is related to argumentation in several distinct but mutually supporting ways. I begin by drawing connections between humility and two topics of long-standing importance to the evaluation of informal ...
