The Intentional Stance and the Imitation Game

open access: yes, 1996
Abstract In Brainstorms Dennett (1981) proposes the following six conditions, each of which is necessary, of ‘personhood’. Although Dennett is concerned with ‘moral personhood’, rather than personhood as such, he believes that metaphysical personhood is a necessary condition of moral personhood.

Taking the intentional stance at 12 months of age

open access: yesCognition, 1995
This paper reports a habituation study indicating that 12-month-old infants can take the "intentional stance" in interpreting the goal-directed spatial behavior of a rational agent.

To Adopt the Intentional Stance?

Psychological Inquiry, 1990
We begin our commentary with a bit of common-sense or everyday psychology, because intention is a notion that originates in our everyday understanding of human action. This introductory analysis allows us then to attend efficiently to Lewis's article. We conclude by mentioning some related research of our own.

Novartis Foundation symposium, 2007
While humans possess a ready capacity to view a target (biological or otherwise) as an intentional agent (i.e. the 'intentional stance'), the conditions necessary for spontaneously eliciting these mentalizing processes are less well understood. Although research examining people's tendency to construe the motion of geometric shapes as intentional has ...

It chiefly proceeds from a series of critical remarks due to Putnam (Putnam 1999, 2016). Dennett has written extensively on the philosophy of mind; his work includes many scholarly and scientific ...
