Abstract Ascribing autonomous status to agents is a valuable practice. As such, we ought care about how engage in practices of autonomy ascription. However, disagreement between first-personal experiences an agent's and third-personal determinations their presents challenges ethical epistemic concern.

Since the 1980s, computer science, especially artificial intelligence (AI) has developed formal models of many aspects of argumentation that since the work of Toulmin and Perelman were thought of as belonging to informal logic.

Implications for the practice of career counselling are discussed along with a working example of a car...

We reflect upon contribut...

This study assumes a dialogical perspective towards the processes of identity construction during the transition to motherhood, and it relies on a methodology that invites the participants to deal with the dualities of the dialogical self (Dialogical Articulation Task DAT). Using this semi-structured interview, we ask the participants to identify the various selfdescriptive dimensions of their ...

In dialogical argumentation, a participant is often unsure what moves the other participant(s) might make. If the dialogue is proceeding according to some accepted protocol, then a participant might be able to determine what are the possible moves that the other might make, but the participant might be unsure as to which move will be chosen by the other agent. In this paper, propositional execu...
