Representation and mental representation
Philosophical Explorations, 2018This paper engages critically with anti-representationalist arguments pressed by prominent enactivists and their allies. The arguments in question are meant to show that the “as-such” and “job-description” problems constitute insurmountable challenges to causal-informational theories of mental content.

Wiley Interdisciplinary Reviews: Cognitive Science, 2018
Over the past 50 years, philosophers and psychologists have perennially argued for the existence of analog mental representations of one type or another. This study critically reviews a number of these arguments as they pertain to three different types of mental representation: perceptual representations, imagery representations, and numerosity ...

Abstract This chapter focuses on the neural substrate of mental representation and cognitive maps. In 1948, American psychologist Edward Chance Tolman postulated that spatial learning requires a representation of the environment in which a subject evolves. This concept has been popularized under the term ‘cognitive map’. These maps would

Memory, 2006Three studies were conducted to describe adults' knowledge of the countries of the world. Undergraduates from a selective liberal arts college recognised nearly two-thirds of nations, and about one-third were produced in a free-recall task. The use of information related to countries' locations was an important determinant of order of recall ...

Representation of Mental Imagery Functions
Perceptual and Motor Skills, 1995A questionnaire was administered to 250 undergraduates to study their conceptions about the efficacy of mental images in thinking. Analysis showed that subjects rated differently the usefulness of visual imagery according to the kind of content rather than the mental process involved.

Erkenntnis, 1978
AbstractArgues for postulating an inner ‘language’ in which thinking takes place, and proposes a means by which this postulate can be construed on functionalist lines. The functional theory is a purely causal one, and makes sense of only the syntactic and conceptual role properties of the inner language; and it is argued that, while the ...

The mental representation of bilingualism
WIREs Cognitive Science, 2010AbstractThis article addresses the question of how different languages are represented in our memory and how bilingual speakers access these languages in language production. The first section discusses diverse approaches to language storage. It introduces a model that considers connections between different levels of language representation, i.e ...

Synthese, 2013
Many philosophers and psychologists have attempted to elucidate the nature of mental representation by appealing to notions like isomorphism or abstract structural resemblance. The ‘structural representations’ that these theorists champion are said to count as representations by virtue of functioning as internal models of distal systems.

On the origin of mental representations
Biosystems, 2019The symbol grounding problem raises its head in the fields of the philosophy of AI, philosophy of psychology and philosophy of cognitive sciences. The solution to the symbol grounding problem must account for the genesis of mental representations in the world.
