Forthcoming in Philosophy and Phenomenological Research Introspection: Divided and Partly Eliminated
This paper will argue that there is no such thing as introspective access to judgments and decisions.

On the contrary, the model presented in Section 2 presumes such access. Hence introspection is here divided into two categories: introspection of proposi...
متن کاملIntrospection.
Two main questions about introspection are addressed: whether it exists, and whether it is a reliable source of self-knowledge. Most philosophers have assumed that the answers to both questions are positive, whereas an increasing number of cognitive scientists take the view that introspection is either nonexistent (with self-attributions of mental states being made on the same sort of interpret...
متن کاملComputational Divided Differencing and Divided-Difference Arithmetics
Tools for computational differentiation transform a program that computes a numerical function F(x) into a related program that computes F ′(x) (the derivative of F). This paper describes how techniques similar to those used in computational-differentiation tools can be used to implement other program transformations—in particular, a variety of transformations for computational divided differen...
متن کاملVagueness and Introspection
Intransitivity and introspection. One central and debated aspect of the notion of inexact knowledge concerns the non-transitivity of the relation of indiscriminability and how it should be represented. On the epistemic account of vagueness put forward by Williamson, the intransitivity of the relation of indiscriminability is presented as the main source for vagueness ([5]: 237). In [4] and in t...

Carruthers’ arguments depend on a tenuous interpretation of cases from the confabulation literature. Specifically, Carruthers maintains that cases of confabulation are “subjectively indistinguishable” from cases of alleged introspection. However, in typical cases of confabulation, the self-attributions are characterized by low confidence, in contrast to cases of alleged introspection. What is c...
