In Defense of Comparability: Reply to Carlson and Risberg

Noûs, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT In “The Case for Comparability,” we argue that every comparative expression “F$F$” obeys Comparability: if two things are at least as F$F$ as themselves, then one of them must be at least as F$F$ as the other. One of our arguments appeals to the apparent validity of the Strong Monotonicity schema: x$x$ is F$F$; y$y$ is not F$F$; so, x$x$ is ...

The Form of Agency

Noûs, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Philosophers often think agency is essentially connected with rationality, intention, or control.

A Scale for Mixed Reasons for Belief

Noûs, EarlyView.

Perceiving Particulars

Noûs, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Causalists contend that you see a specific object (rather than a lookalike, or no object at all) because that object sits at the beginning of an appropriate causal chain that terminates in your visual experience. We argue that neither standard causalists nor their non‐causalist opponents can adequately accommodate a striking asymmetry between ...
