From Epistemic Expressivism to Epistemic Inferentialism [PDF]

, 2010
Abstract This chapter explains my reasons for endorsing an inferentialist rather than an expressivist form of nondescriptivism about epistemic discourse. Epistemic inferentialism is the view that epistemic claims mean what they do in virtue of the inferential responsibilities and entitlements one commits to in making them, rather than ...

Adverbial stance marking in the introduction and conclusion sections of legal research articles

Revista de Lingüística y Lenguas Aplicadas, 2013
Although scientific research articles have traditionally been taken as examples of an objective style of writing that aims to minimise researchers’ voices in their texts (Gilbert and Mulkay, 1984:42), authors inevitably adopt stances towards the ...

King Aorta: Narrative anatomy education

Anatomical Sciences Education, Volume 18, Issue 3, Page 264-276, March 2025.
Abstract The aim of this study was to investigate the effects of narrative anatomy education and traditional anatomy education on academic achievement. The study included 64 students who were randomly divided into two groups. The two groups were (n = 32) control (Group 1) and (n = 32) experimental (Group 2). The pretest scores of the two groups were 36.

Epistemic Blame and Epistemic Business

, 2022
This thesis concerns our standing to epistemically blame. We have reason to think three claims hold true: (1) we only have the standing to epistemically blame when it’s our epistemic business, (2) other people’s epistemic errors are rarely our epistemic business, and (3) we often have the standing to epistemically blame.

Using artificial intelligence thanabots as “thanatobots” to assist anatomy learning and professional development: Ghosts masquerading as opportunity?

Anatomical Sciences Education, EarlyView.
Thanabots—AI‐generated digital representations of deceased donors—could enhance anatomy education by linking medical history with anatomy and fostering humanistic engagement. However, their use poses ethical questions and carries psychological risks, including issues around consent, authenticity, and emotional harm.

Essential work, invisible workers: The role of digital curation in COVID‐19 Open Science

Journal of the Association for Information Science and Technology, Volume 76, Issue 4, Page 703-717, April 2025.
Abstract In this paper, we examine the role digital curation practices and practitioners played in facilitating open science (OS) initiatives amid the COVID‐19 pandemic. In Summer 2023, we conducted a content analysis of available information regarding 50 OS initiatives that emerged—or substantially shifted their focus—between 2020 and 2022 to address ...

How multilingual is scholarly communication? Mapping the global distribution of languages in publications and citations

Journal of the Association for Information Science and Technology, EarlyView.
Abstract Language is a major source of systemic inequities in science, particularly among scholars whose first language is not English. Studies have examined scientists' linguistic practices in specific contexts; few, however, have provided a global analysis of multilingualism in science. Using two major bibliometric databases (OpenAlex and Dimensions),

Information retrieval or document retrieval? Terminological confusions and unrealistic goals in information science, exemplified in relation to generative artificial intelligence

Journal of the Association for Information Science and Technology, EarlyView.
Abstract ChatGPT and related technologies have revived an old issue in information science (IS) concerning information retrieval (IR) versus document retrieval. Since 1950, the term IR has primarily been used as a misnomer for document retrieval. This problematic terminology reflects a desire to go beyond documents and provide, in response to user ...

A dancing bear, a colleague, or a sharpened toolbox? The cautious adoption of generative artificial intelligence technologies in digital humanities research

Journal of the Association for Information Science and Technology, EarlyView.
Abstract The emergence of generative artificial intelligence (GenAI) is reshaping the research landscape and carries significant implications for Digital Humanities (DH), a field long intertwined with computational methods and technologies. This study examines how DH scholars are adopting and critically evaluating GenAI in their research. Drawing on an

Developing a critical caste analysis within information science and technology: A research review: An annual review of information science and technology paper

Journal of the Association for Information Science and Technology, EarlyView.
Abstract Caste—an ascriptive social hierarchy in South Asia and its diaspora—is a globalized phenomenon. Recent caste‐based discrimination, particularly in technology companies and anti‐caste efforts to address it, has compelled academia, policy, and the technology industry to better understand contemporary mechanics of caste.
