Abstract

Judgments about truth, retraction, and consistency across contexts have been used in recent years to argue both for and against the revisionary theses of relativism about truth and expressivism about apparently truth-apt expressions like epistemic modals. We show that we find the same patterns that have been observed for epistemic modal claims like ‘Might p’ when it comes to first-person attitude claims with the form ‘I think that p’. This poses a serious challenge to many extant accounts of eavesdropping judgments—whether relativist, expressivist, or contextualist in nature—because extending these treatments to the corresponding ‘thinks’ judgments is prima facie implausible. Moreover, we argue, it suggests that eavesdropping judgments will not play an essential role in deciding between these views. EARLY ACCESS
偷听:它有什么好处?
近年来,关于真理、撤回和跨语境一致性的判断被用来支持和反对关于真理的相对主义和关于明显倾向于真理的表达(如认知情态)的表达主义的修正论点。我们发现在认知模态断言如"可能是p "中我们发现了相同的模式当涉及到第一人称态度断言形式为"我认为是p "时。这对许多现存的关于窃听判断的说法——无论是相对主义的、表现主义的,还是本质上的语境主义的——提出了严峻的挑战,因为将这些处理扩展到相应的“思考”判断是初步的不可信的。此外,我们认为,这表明窃听判断不会在决定这些观点之间发挥重要作用。早期访问

期刊介绍: Accounts of Chemical Research presents short, concise and critical articles offering easy-to-read overviews of basic research and applications in all areas of chemistry and biochemistry. These short reviews focus on research from the author’s own laboratory and are designed to teach the reader about a research project. In addition, Accounts of Chemical Research publishes commentaries that give an informed opinion on a current research problem. Special Issues online are devoted to a single topic of unusual activity and significance. Accounts of Chemical Research replaces the traditional article abstract with an article "Conspectus." These entries synopsize the research affording the reader a closer look at the content and significance of an article. Through this provision of a more detailed description of the article contents, the Conspectus enhances the article's discoverability by search engines and the exposure for the research.
