Abstract |
After presenting evidence about categorization behavior, this paper argues for the
following theses: 1) that there is a border between perception and cognition; 2) that the
border is to be characterized by perception being modular (and cognition not being so); 3) that perception outputs conceptualized representations, so views that posit that the output of perception is solely non-conceptual are false; and 4) that perceptual content consists of basic-level categories and not richer contents.
