Shifting Frames: From Divided to Distributed Psychologies of Scientific Agents

Abstract
I characterize and then complicate Solomon, Thagard and Goldman ' s framing of the issue of integrating cognitive and social factors in explaining science. I sketch a radically different framing which distributes the mind beyond the brain, embodies it, and has that mind - body - person become, as s / he always is, an agent acting in a society. I also find problems in Solomon ' s construal of multivariate statistics, Thagard ' s analogies for multivariate analysis, and Goldman ' s faith in the capacity of the community of users of scientific method to home in on true beliefs
