Functionalist response-dependence avoids missing explanations
Analysis 71 (2):297-300 (2011)
| Abstract | I argue that there is a flaw in the way that response-dependence has been formulated in the literature, and this flawed formulation has been correctly attacked by Mark Johnston’s Missing Explanation Argument. Moving to a better formulation, which is analogous to the move from behaviourism to functionalism, avoids the Missing Explanation Argument. | |||||||||
