Normativity and naturalism as if nature mattered

Journal of Critical Realism, 2019
The usual way of discussing normativity and naturalism is by running through a standard range of issues: the relations of fact and value, objectivity, reason and emotion, is and ought, and the so-called ‘naturalistic fallacy’.

Toward the Clinical Translation of Implantable Brain–Computer Interfaces for Motor Impairment: Research Trends and Outcome Measures

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Implantable brain–computer interfaces (iBCIs) are rapidly approaching clinical translation. This review maps key trends in the development of iBCIs and highlights the lack of standardised clinical outcome measures. It discusses a proposed framework for the selection of outcome measures in clinical trials and introduces a new international registry of ...

Practice of Naturalism in Naguib Mahfouz’s Midaq Alley

Jurnal Poetika
Naturalism novels portray the reality of life in a sharper and more decisive way than realism novels. Naturalism takes the place of building a narrative, like shooting a photographic reality by zooming in.

Distributed Temporal Coding of Visual Memory Categories in Human Hippocampal Neurons Revealed by an Interpretable Decoding Model

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
This study examines how the human hippocampus encodes visual memory categories. By decoding spiking activity from CA3 and CA1 neurons using an interpretable model, it reveals that category‐specific representations emerge from distributed temporal coding.

Naturalism, tractability and the adaptive toolbox

Synthese, 2019
Many compelling examples have recently been provided in which people can achieve impressive epistemic success, e.g. draw highly accurate inferences, by using simple heuristics and very little information.

Natural Disaster and Natural Selection [PDF]

SSRN Electronic Journal, 2013
In this paper, we investigate whether a natural selection mechanism works for firm exit. By using data of firms after a devastating earthquake, the Great Tohoku Earthquake, we examine the impact of firm efficiency on firm exit both inside and outside the earthquake-affected areas. We find evidence suggesting that more efficient firms are less likely to

Oxytocin Reduces Subjective Fear in Naturalistic Social Contexts via Enhancing Top‐Down Middle Cingulate Amygdala Regulation and Brain‐Wide Fear Representations

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
This double‐blind, placebo‐controlled study demonstrates that intranasal oxytocin reduces subjective fear in immersive, naturalistic social (but not non‐social) contexts. Concomitant fMRI reveals that oxytocin enhances middle cingulate activity and amygdala connectivity while it modulates network‐level connectivity and attenuates reactivity of a brain ...
