Viernes 14 de diciembre, 18 hs.

In this talk I compare and contrast three conceptions of reason-giving explanations of intentional actions: ‘theory theory’, simulation theory, and teleology. I make a case for teleology, and bring out some of the repercussions of this debate for work in developmental psychology on the acquisition of a ‘theory of mind’.
