Reidentification and redescription
Behavioral and Brain Sciences, 1998Millikan's account of substance concepts fails to do away with features. Her approach simply moves the suite of relevant features into an encapsulated module. The crux of the problem for scientists studying human infants and nonhuman animals is to determine how individuals reidentify objects and events in the world.

Ethos, 2012
AbstractIn this comment I consider the generative tensions between phenomenological and psychodynamic approaches in anthropology. I propose several reasons for the recent interest in phenomenological perspectives, and suggest several ways that there might be a productive interplay between the two approaches. [phenomenology, psychoanalysis, ethnography,

Morphological Redescription of Dirofilaria immitis
Journal of Parasitology, 2010Morphological descriptions of Dirofilaria immitis are scarce. For this reason, we carried out morphological studies using both light and scanning electron microscopy for this filaroid species. Morphometric and morphological data were compatible with previous descriptions of D.

History of the Human Sciences, 2003
This article takes up issues raised in the debate over what Ian Hacking has labelled `an indeterminacy in the past'. It addresses certain criticisms of Wes Sharrock and Ivan Leudar, and attempts to develop further the idea that difficulties with retroactive redescription reflect a deep indeterminacy about certain past actions.

Theory Revision and Redescription
Current Directions in Psychological Science, 2007Children acquire complex relational representations of the world. Explaining the acquisition of these representations has been a significant challenge for theories of cognitive development. Recent work suggests that two processes, theory revision and redescription, operate in an iterative, complementary fashion to produce new representations.

Abstract This chapter focuses on theories of modesty as redescription at work in literary texts. Ian McEwan’s Atonement, Saturday, and Solar demonstrate critical modesty in two interrelated ways. His novels offer a modest vision of literary efficacy as severely circumscribed by literature’s entanglements with the larger world.

The ethics of Rortian redescription
Philosophy & Social Criticism, 2006Certain features of Richard Rorty's account of liberal irony have provoked serious moral criticisms from some of his peers. In particular, Rorty's claim that anything can be made to look good or bad by being redescribed has struck some philosophers, such as Richard Bernstein and Jean Bethke Elshtain, for instance, as morally outrageous.

Cognition without representational redescription
Behavioral and Brain Sciences, 1997Ballard et al. show how control structures using minimal state can be made flexible enough for complex cognitive tasks by using deictic pointers, but they do so within a specific computational framework. We discuss broader implications in cognition and memory and provide biological evidence for their theory.

Intentionality, Pluralism, and Redescription
Philosophy of the Social Sciences, 2004Donald Davidson, and others, have sometimes claimed that the subject matter of social science properly consists only of intentional actions. The author disputes this claim and explores an example drawn from social psychology that shows that some social scientific phenomena cannot be explained unless they are redescribed in nonintentional language.
