Goodman, 'grue' and Hempel*
It is now commonly accepted that N. Goodman's predicate "grue" presents the theory of confirmation of C. G. Hempel (and other such theories) with grave difficulties. The precise nature and status of these "difficulties" has, however, never been made clear. In this paper it is argued that it is very unlikely that "grue" raises any formal difficulties for Hempel and appearances to the contrary ar...
متن کاملRelativism: Protagoras and Nelson Goodman
پروتاگوراس در یونان باستان و نلسون گودمن در دورۀ جدید دو تن از برجستهترین مدافعان نسبیگرایی به شمار میروند. گاه ممکن است نثر آن دو فریبنده بنماید، و چه بسا این امر شرح و تفسیر منظور و مراد حقیقی آنها را دشوار سازد. پروتاگوراس و گودمن، با وجود برخی تفاوتها، به دفاع از این دیدگاه به ظاهر افراطی میپردازند که همه وقایع، به معنای حقیقی کلمه، وابسته به دیدگاه انسان است. هدف این مقاله شرح و بررسی ...
متن کاملPrenatal PBDEs and Neurodevelopment: Herbstman et al. Respond to Goodman et al. and to Banasik and Strosznajder
A 469 over time could have altered any observed exposure–response associations. In addition, the authors did not indicate how assessments of individual children changed over time. If different children contributed to associations at different ages, the reported findings may not be indicative of a causal role for PBDEs. Notably, most associations were found at earlier ages, suggesting that even ...
متن کاملHidalgo et al..fm
We present here a six-species comparison of tree-ring growth response to extremes (below the 30th and above the 70th percentile) in temperature, precipitation, and corresponding streamflow. The species compared are Pinus edulis (PIED), Pseudotsuga menziesii (PSME), Pinus ponderosa (PIPO), Pinus flexilis (PIFL), Pinus aristata (PIAR), and Picea engelmannii (PCEN). Sensitivity was determined usin...
متن کاملSimilarity After Goodman
In a famous critique, Goodman dismissed similarity as a slippery and both philosophically and scientifically useless notion. We revisit his critique in the light of important recent work on similarity in psychology and cognitive science. Specifically, we use Tversky's influential set-theoretic account of similarity as well as Gärdenfors's more recent resuscitation of the geometrical account to ...
