Representational theory emerges unscathed
Behavioral and Brain Sciences 21 (6):764-765 (1998)
| Abstract | Representationalism emerges unscathed from Pessoa et al.'s attack. They fail to undermine a key reason for its influence: it has the theoretical resources to explain many illusory visual experiences such as illusory contours and features. Furthermore, in attempting to undermine representationalism, the authors seem to erect an unduly inflated distinction between neural accounts of perception and personal-level accounts of perception. | |||||||||
