Gold's theorem and cognitive science
Philosophy of Science 70 (4):571-592 (2004)
| Abstract | A variety of inaccurate claims about Gold's Theorem have appeared in the cognitive science literature. I begin by characterizing the logic of this theorem and its proof. I then examine several claims about Gold's Theorem, and I show why they are false. Finally, I assess the significance of Gold's Theorem for cognitive science. | |||||||||
