The Common Kind Theory and The Concept of Perceptual Experience
In this paper, I advance a new hypothesis about what the ordinary concept of perceptual experience might be. To a first approximation, my hypothesis...

Naïve realism and supersaturated hue
Naïve realists have yet to successfully discharge the problem of supersaturated hue, afterimage-experiences as of hued surfaces that are...

Naïve Realism as Psychosemantics
For those who think the notion of representation plays a critical role in visual perception, a pressing question—at least for those who are...

Intraspecific floral color variation as perceived by pollinators and non-pollinators: evidence for pollinator-imposed constraints?
Pollinator-mediated selection is expected to constrain floral color variation within plant populations, yet populations with high color variation (at...

The Effects of Vocal Stereotypy on Secondary Target Acquisition
Instructive feedback (IF) is a strategy for increasing the efficiency of targeted instruction. Previous research has demonstrated the success of IF...

Vague perception
I argue that some perceptual experiences are vague. To do so, I identify a characteristic feature of vagueness and show that some perceptual...

Generalization and Maintenance
Generalization and maintenance is a key tenet to our work as behavioral practitioners. This is highlighted in our work with children with autism...

Programming for Generalization and Maintenance
The generalizability of learned skills is an essential component of behavioral interventions. For children with ASD, a lack of generalization is...

On the Ambiguity of Images and Particularity of Imaginings
It is often observed that images—including mental images—are in some sense representationally ambiguous. Some, including Jerry Fodor, have added that...

CNN-based search model fails to account for human attention guidance by simple visual features
Recently, Zhang et al. ( Nature communications, 9 (1), 3730,
2018 ) proposed an interesting model of attention guidance that uses visual features learnt...

Chimpanzee (Pan troglodytes) gaze is conspicuous at ecologically-relevant distances
Chimpanzee ( Pan troglodytes ) sclera appear much darker than the white sclera of human eyes, to such a degree that the direction of chimpanzee gaze...

Husserl and Disjunctivism Revisited
In a recent series of important papers, Søren Overgaard has defended a disjunctivist reading of Edmund Husserl’s theory of perception. According to...

The Use of Instructive Feedback to Promote Emergent Tact and Intraverbal Control: A Replication
Instructive feedback (IF) involves incorporating additional acquisition targets into skill-acquisition programs. A recent study by Frampton and...

Perceptual constancy and the dimensions of perceptual experience
Perceptual constancy, often defined as the perception of stable features under changing conditions, goes hand in hand with variation in how things...

Phenomenal properties are luminous properties
What is the connection between having a phenomenal property and knowing that one has that property? A traditional view on the matter takes the...

Aristotle, Plato, and Polanyi on Access to Forms
This chapter builds on the analysis of Michael Polanyi’s understanding of Universals by examining the question of how we access universal concepts. I...

Naïve Realism and the Colors of Afterimages
Along with hallucinations and illusions, afterimages have shaped the philosophical debate about the nature of perception. Often referred to as...

A Comparison of Secondary Target Location in Instructive Feedback Procedures
Instructive feedback (IF) is an effective strategy for increasing the efficiency of targeted instruction. Although effective, the mechanisms...

Resolution of tonic concentrations of highly similar neurotransmitters using voltammetry and deep learning
With advances in our understanding regarding the neurochemical underpinnings of neurological and psychiatric diseases, there is an increased demand...
