Epistemic Modality and Non-Epistemic Modality in Modal Auxiliaries

open access: yesEpistemic Modality and Non-Epistemic Modality in Modal Auxiliaries
私達が発話をする際には、概ね、聞き手に対して何らかの影響を与えようとしていると言って良いが、それは、しばしば聞き手にとって直接的過ぎたり、話者の主観的な振る舞いをしている。それらの陳述緩和の作用を果たす要素の一つが法助動詞の使用である。本論文においては、法助動詞が特定のコンテクストにおいて、どのような役割を果たしているのかを考察する。

ABSTRACT This study addresses the limitations of reductionist approaches to citizens' proenvironmental behaviour (PEB) by adopting a systems thinking perspective.

Boundary‐work describes the activities of social groups as they seek to differentiate themselves from others to establish credibility, authority, or to protect their interests.

Emancipatory Potential of Naming: A Study on Church Employees' Personal Stories of Negative Experiences

open access: yesSymbolic Interaction, EarlyView.
To address interactionally troublesome exchanges (e.g., bullying, discrimination, or harassment) in the workplace, giving a name to negative personal experiences is crucial.

“Who Is Watching me?”: Recovering the Grammar of Stigma in Interaction

open access: yesSymbolic Interaction, EarlyView.
This article offers a praxeological respecification of stigma. I argue that the term “stigma” is a category term and glossing device, used to gather together and stand in for a diverse range of interactional experiences, including, but not limited to, degradation, discrediting, discrimination, marginalization, and being demeaned.

Epistemic modal credence

open access: yes, 2021
Triviality results threaten plausible principles governing our credence in epistemic modal claims. This paper develops a new account of modal credence which avoids triviality. On the resulting theory, probabilities are assigned not to sets of worlds, but rather to sets of information state- world pairs.

Epistemic Modalities

open access: yes, 2009
I present an analysis of the notion of epistemic modalities, based on an appropriate interpretation of two basic constructivist issues: verification and epistemic agency. Starting from an historical analysis of conditions for judgments, I analyze first the reading of necessity with respect to apodictic judgements, and then that of possibility with ...
