Understanding Paranoia: Toward A Social Explanation
In this paper we seek to offer an essentially sociological explanation of paranoia by way of a detailed examination of the case of an unmarried, ex-school-teacher who for the past 30 years has clung stubbornly to the belief that she is the victim of an ill-defined group of conspirators with the power to control her thoughts and actions. Taking as our starting point Lemert's seminal 1962 paper, ...
متن کاملPointing: A Way Toward Explanation Dialogue
Explanation requires a dialogue. Users must be allowed to ask questions about previously given explanations. However, building an interface that allows users to ask follow-up questions poses a difficult challenge for natural language understanding because such questions often intermix meta-level references to the discourse with object-level references to the domain. We propose a hypertext-like ...
متن کاملProgress in Dialectometry: Toward Explanation
Dialectometric techniques analyze linguistic variation quantitatively, allowing one to aggregate over what are frequently rebarbative geographic patterns of individual linguistic variants, such as which word is used for a particular concept in a language area, or which sounds are used in particular words. This leads to general formulations of the relation between linguistic variation and explan...
متن کاملToward a physiological understanding of human dexterity.
Dexterity, defined as the skillful manipulation of the hands, is now amenable to physiological investigation. Two topics are discussed here: grasping (i.e., hand-object coupling) and bimanual coordination. Dexterity depends on powerful, distributed neural networks and is particularly vulnerable to brain lesions. A knowledge of physiological mechanisms is needed to deal with these neurological p...
متن کاملMathematical Explanation of Physical Phenomena: A Step Toward Pluralism?
A traditional trend toward scientific explanation aimed to provide a single account of the nature of explanation. On the other hand, a recent attitude toward mathematical explanations of physical phenomena is to go ‘pluralist’ and consider that what makes something a good explanation can vary from case to case, i.e. there are different kinds of explanation which cannot be captured through a sin...
