摘要

本文认为,属性实现的子集理论不能同时解释心理属性的多重可实现性和因果效应。它通过将已实现财产的每一种力量与其实现者的某种力量相结合来避免因果排斥的威胁,但这意味着多重可实现财产的不同实现者分享他们的因果力量,而事实并非如此。提出一个反例作为证据。因此,在其原始形式中,该理论无法解释心理属性的多重可实现性。该理论可以修正以解释多重可实现性,但这些修正破坏了其对心理因果关系的解释,从而重新引入了因果排除的问题。因此,子集理论陷入了物理主义心智理论所熟悉的两难境地。

A familiar dilemma for the subset theory of realization

I argue that the subset theory of property realization cannot account for both the multiple realizability and causal efficacy of mental properties. It avoids the threat of causal exclusion by identifying every power of a realized property with some power of its realizer, but this entails that the different realizers of a multiply realizable property share their causal powers, and this just isn't so. A counterexample is produced as evidence. Thus, in its original form, the theory fails to account for the multiple realizability of mental properties. The theory can be amended to account for multiple realizability, but these amendments undermine its account of mental causation and thereby reintroduce the problem of causal exclusion. The subset theory is thus caught between the horns of a familiar dilemma for physicalist theories of mind.
