Reformulating the Second Law

Scientonomy, 2017
The current formulation of the second law is flawed since it does not specify the causal relations between the outcomes of theory assessment and the actual acceptance/unacceptance of a theory; it merely tells us that a theory was assessed by the method ...

Authority Delegation

Scientonomy, 2016
In this paper, we introduce a new concept to the field of scientonomy, that of authority delegation. Authority delegation is, in essence, a type of relation between distinct scientific communities whereby one community both recognizes another as an ...

A Taxonomy for the Social Agents of Scientific Change

Scientonomy, 2017
Although we accept that a scientific mosaic is a set of theories and methods accepted and employed by a scientific community, scientific community currently lacks a proper definition in scientonomy.

Element Decay

, 2021
This paper attempts to establish the existence of element decay by making a historical case for the existence of theory decay, a phenomenon where theories leave an agent’s mosaic without any re-evaluation or decision on the agent’s part.

Multiple Authority Delegation in Art Authentication

Scientonomy, 2017
In this paper, I expand upon the research on authority delegation begun by Overgaard and myself in our 2016 paper Authority Delegation. I argue that singular authority delegation – in which a community delegates authority over a given topic to a single ...

Epistemic Stances: Local vs. Global, Reducible vs. Irreducible

This paper addresses a gap in the scientonomic ontology by clarifying the notion of epistemic stance and articulating two orthogonal distinctions among epistemic stances: global vs. local, and reducible vs. irreducible.

Redefining Epistemic Stances

Epistemic stances play a foundational role in scientonomy’s explanatory framework, yet several of their currently accepted definitions fail to capture the concepts they are intended to explicate.
