A slippery slope argument is an argument to this twofold effect. First, that if a policy or practice P is permitted, then we lack the dialectical resources to demonstrate that a similar policy or practice P* is not permissible. Since P* is indeed not permissible, we should not endorse policy or practice P. At the heart of such arguments is the idea of dialectical impotence, the inability to stop the acceptance of apparently small deviations from a heretofore secure policy or practice from leading to apparently large and unacceptable deviations. Using examples of analogical arguments and sorites arguments I examine this phenomenon in the context of collapsing taboos. 相似文献

In this paper we concentrate mainly on the notion of β-pregroups, which are pregroups (first introduced by Lambek [18] in 1999) enriched with modality operators. β-pregroups were first proposed by Fadda [11] in 2001. The motivation to introduce them was to limit (locally) the associativity
in the calculus considered. In this paper we present this new calculus in the form of a rewriting system, prove the very important
feature of this system - that in a given derivation the non-expanding rules must always proceed non-contracting ones in order
the derivation to be minimal (normalization theorem). We also propose a sequent system for this calculus and prove the cut
elimination theorem for it. As an illustration we show how to use β-pregroups for linguistical applications.

We investigate the research programme of dynamic doxastic logic (DDL) and analyze its underlying methodology. The Ramsey test for conditionals is used to characterize the logical and philosophical differences between two paradigmatic systems, AGM and KGM, which we develop and compare axiomatically and semantically. The importance of Gärdenfors’s impossibility result on the Ramsey test is highlighted by a comparison with Arrow’s impossibility result on social choice. We end with an outlook on the prospects and the future of DDL. 相似文献

Covenants and reputations 总被引:1,自引:1,他引:0

In their classic analyses, Hobbes and Hume argue that offensively violating a covenant is irrational because the offense ruins
one’s reputation. This paper explores conditions under which reputation alone can enforce covenants. The members of a community
are modeled as interacting in a Covenant Game repeated over time. Folk theorems are presented that give conditions under which
the Humean strategy of performing in covenants only with those who have never offensively violated or performed with an offensive
violator characterizes an equilibrium of the repeated Covenant Game. These folk theorems establish that for certain ideal
settings Hobbes’ and Hume’s arguments against offensively violating covenants are compelling. However, these ideal settings
presuppose that the community has certain mechanisms that generate common knowledge of the identities of those with whom one
should perform. I analyze the results of computer simulations of the interactions in a community whose members must rely upon
private communication alone. The computer simulation data show that in this community, reputation effects cannot effectively
deter members from offensively violating covenants. I conclude that Hobbes’ and Hume’s warnings against offensive violation
are compelling only on condition that the community is sufficiently structured to generate common knowledge among its members.
I also conclude that even in such structured communities, the Humean strategy is not the uniquely “correct” policy. 相似文献

In an earlier paper, I claimed that one version of Putnam's model-theoretic argument against realism turned on a subtle, but
philosophically significant, mathematical mistake. Recently, Luca Bellotti has criticized my argument for this claim. This
paper responds to Bellotti's criticisms. 相似文献

Previous research has uncovered many conditions that encourage base‐rate use. The present research investigates how base‐rates are used when conditions are manipulated to encourage their use in the lawyer/engineer paradigm. To examine the functional form of the response to base‐rate, a factorial design was employed in which both base‐rate and the individuating information were varied within‐subject. We compared the performance of several models of base‐rate use, including a model that allows base‐rate and individuating information to be combined in a strictly additive fashion, and a model which presumes that respondents use Bayes' Rule in forming their judgments. Results from 1493 respondents showed that the additive model is a stronger predictor of base‐rate use than any other model considered, suggesting that the base‐rate and individuating information are processed independently in the lawyer/engineer paradigm. A possible mechanism for this finding is discussed. Copyright © 1999 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd. 相似文献

Probabilistic reasoning plays an essential part in many aspects of our daily routine and it has been argued that as we grow older, the need to make judgements under uncertainty becomes increasingly important. Two studies were conducted to establish whether the propensity to commit probabilistic reasoning errors increased with age. Young (aged 16–24), middle aged (25–54), and older persons (55 years and above) were included. Study 1 revealed systematic biases and errors across a range of judgement tasks. However, no evidence of any age effect in Bayesian inference, the incidence of the conjunction fallacy, or in the number of disjunction errors was found. The results obtained in Study 1 were replicated in Study 2, where the potential mediating role of working memory processes and intellectual capacity were explicitly assessed. While some aspects of probabilistic reasoning performance were correlated with measures of intelligence and working memory functioning among young adults, this was much less evident in older persons. The present findings are discussed in relation to the evolution of the dualistic heuristic–analytical system over the adult lifespan. Copyright © 2005 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd. 相似文献

Kripke-completeness of every classical modal logic with Sahlqvist formulas is one of the basic general results on completeness of classical modal logics. This paper shows a Sahlqvist theorem for modal logic over the relevant logic Bin terms of Routley-Meyer semantics. It is shown that usual Sahlqvist theorem for classical modal logics can be obtained as a special case of our theorem. 相似文献

A full separation theorem for the derivable rules of intuitionistic linear logic without bounds, 0 and exponentials is proved. Several structural consequences of this theorem for subreducts of (commutative) residuated lattices are obtained. The theorem is then extended to the logic LR
+ and its proof is extended to obtain the finite embeddability property for the class of square increasing residuated lattices. 相似文献

"[人]在[大场所]"材料范式下观察不到信息整合的原因初探 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
本研究采用扇效应技术来探求推翻G.A.Radvansky针对其1993年研究结果所作解释的证据。共分为两个分实验。实验1重复Radvansky1993年研究中的实验三,以取得中文材料的基线值,为实验2做准备;实验2通过在材料中使用同样具有可“移动性”的物体的概念(例如快餐车)来探讨“可移动性”是否是“[人]在[大场所]”材料范式下观察不到信息整合的根本原因。结果表明“人的可移动性”不是“[人]在[大场所]”.材料范式下观察不到信息整合的原因。 相似文献
