Philosophy and Phenomenological Research, Volume 109, Issue 3, Page 856-873, November 2024.Abstract This paper commences by making a case for a naturalized approach to knowledge‐first epistemology.

When are Humans Reasoning with Modus Tollens?
, 2021 Modus tollens is a rule of inference in classical, two-valued logic which allows to derive the negation of the antecedent from a conditional and the negation of its consequent. In this paper, we investigate when humans draw such conclusions and what modulates the application of modus tollens. We consider conditionals which may or may not be obligations

CoRR, 2014 This paper is a critique of version three of Joonmo Kim's paper entitled "P is not equal to NP by Modus Tollens. [arXiv:1403.4143v3]" After summarizing Kim's proof, we note that the logic that Kim uses is inconsistent, which provides evidence that the proof is invalid.

Scientific Realism and the Pessimistic Meta-Modus Tollens [PDF]
, 2002 Broadly speaking, the contemporary scientific realist is concerned to justify belief in what we might call theoretical truth, which includes truth based on ampliative inference and truth about unobservables.1 Many, if not most, contemporary realists say scientific realism should be treated as ‘an overarching scientific hypothesis’ (Putnam 1978, p. 18).
