Extended Cognition and Epistemic Luck [PDF]

SynthÈse, 2013
When extended cognition is extended into mainstream epistemology, an awkward tension arises when considering cases of environmental epistemic luck. Surprisingly, it is not at all clear how the mainstream verdict that agents lack knowledge in cases of environmental luck can be reconciled with principles central to extended cognition.

Extended Cognition and the Metaphysics of Mind [PDF]

Cognitive Systems Research, 2010
Advocates of the ‘extended mind' - the claim that cognitive processes can and do extend outside the head - have generally had little to say on the metaphysics of mind, preferring to concentrate on the explanatory role which extended cognition can play in empirical cognitive science research.

Extended Spider Cognition [PDF]

Animal Cognition, 2017
There is a tension between the conception of cognition as a central nervous system (CNS) process and a view of cognition as extending towards the body or the contiguous environment. The centralised conception requires large or complex nervous systems to cope with complex environments.

Human-Extended Machine Cognition [PDF]

Cognitive Systems Research, 2018
Abstract Human-extended machine cognition is a specific form of artificial intelligence in which the casually-active physical vehicles of machine-based cognitive states and processes include one or more human agents. Human-extended machine cognition is thus a specific form of extended cognition that sees human agents as constituent parts of the ...

Socially Extended Cognition and Shared Intentionality

Frontiers in Psychology, 2018
The paper looks at the intersection of extended cognition and social cognition. The central claim is that the mechanisms of shared intentionality can equally be considered as coupling mechanisms of cognitive extension into the social domain.

Cognitive Ability and the Extended Cognition Thesis [PDF]

SynthÈse, 2010
This paper explores the ramifications of the extended cognition thesis in the philosophy of mind for contemporary epistemology. In particular, it argues that all theories of knowledge need to accommodate the ability intuition that knowledge involves cognitive ability, but that once this requirement is understood correctly there is no reason why one ...

Extended Cognition: Feedback Loops and Coupled Systems [PDF]

Interdisciplinary Description of Complex Systems, 2017
The article explores two waves of active externalism. I first introduce the distinction between passive and active externalism and analyse a proposal of active externalism based on the principle of parity proposed by Clark and Chalmers.

Extending cognition: a vegetal rejoinder to extensionless thought and to extended cognition

Plant Signaling & Behavior
In this paper, we propose a crucial supplement to the framework of plant cognition, namely extending cognition. We argue that plants and other organisms with an open-ended body plan actively extend their cognition when growing tissues or organs.

Extended Affectivity as the Cognition of Primary Intersubjectivity

Phenomenology and Mind, 2017
I discuss the primordial affectivity approach (Colombetti 2014) and the extended emotions theory (Krueger 2014, Slaby 2014, Candiotto 2015, Carter et al. 2016) in order to propose a novel account of “extended affectivity” (EA) as the cognition of primary

Extended animal cognition

Synthese
Abstract: According to the extended cognition thesis, an agent's cognitive system can sometimes include extracerebral components amongst its physical constituents. Here, we show that such a view of cognition has an unjustifiably anthropocentric focus, for it tends to depict cognitive extensions as a human-only affair. In contrast, we will argue that if
