SUMMARY:Language and Mind Seminar: Matthew Soteriou (King's College London)
DESCRIPTION:Title: The Experienced Present\, the Strict Present\, and the Passage of Time \nAbstract: \nIn this talk I will outline a view according to which the experienced present is best understood as the origin of the sort of temporal point of view that we occupy when we are conscious\, and our experience of the passage of time is best understood as experience of apparent change in location of the origin of that temporal point of view. I shall discuss how this way of thinking of the experienced present bears on debates about the so-called ‘doctrine of the specious present’. This will include a discussion of some of the ways in which the phenomenology of our experience of the passage of time can help diagnose some sources of resistance to the idea that the experienced present is an interval. I shall be suggesting that while the experienced present has duration\, there is nonetheless a sense in which we seem to experience the passage of time in a way that makes tempting the idea that there must be a strict present. So there is a respect in which the phenomenology of our temporal experience speaks in favour of the strict present\, and also tells against it\, which in turn makes tempting the claim that the experienced present is ‘specious’.

SUMMARY:Metaphysics and Logic Seminar: Alberto Rappuoli (University of St Andrews and University of Stirling)
DESCRIPTION:Title: On the Plurality of Analyses: From Lewis Back to Russell and Moore \nAbstract: It is often argued that\, amongst the various existing philosophical traditions\, the one that enjoys the widest support is the analytic tradition. And\, indeed\, it is undoubtedly true that many philosophers would be prepared to describe themselves as ‘analytic philosophers’. Yet what such a statement of affiliation entails is far from evident. Just as it is clear that there is something in common amongst all analytic philosophers\, it is equally clear that we do not know for sure what this something is. Part of the problem\, is that the obvious suggestion that analytic philosophers are united by their adherence to the method of analysis raises unexpected difficulties. Different philosophers\, in fact\, appear to use the term ‘analysis’ to refer to very different methodologies\, with no apparent consensus about what is the best way forward. The fact that none of these methodologies can singularly claim the title of ‘analytic method’\, however\, should not discourage us from paying attention to the interconnections that link them to one another. Quite the contrary\, in this talk I will defend the idea that it is only by attending to these interconnections that we can appreciate how seemingly distinct modes of analysis combine to form a unified methodological framework. A methodological framework\, which\, as I will illustrate\, ties together the analytic revolution inaugurated by Frege\, Russell\, and Moore with the modal metaphysics of David Lewis.

SUMMARY:Epistemology Seminar: Tomos Gwydion Ap Sion (St Andrews) "Replication and theory development in the social and psychological sciences"
DESCRIPTION:It is a hallmark of social and psychological science that its findings should be reproducible across relevant contexts\, playing a key role in showcasing the reliability of detected effects. However\, following what some have called a “watershed” moment\, a “crisis of confidence” has befallen the discipline\, with commentators zeroing in on the Reproducibility Project’s low replication estimate of 36-47% (Open Science Collaboration\, 2015; Pashler & Wagenmakers\, 2012; Wiggins & Christopherson\, 2019). The theory crisis is another perhaps less well-known issue facing social and psychological science\, with researchers arguing that its theories are generally of poor quality (Eronen & Bringmann\, 2021; Fiedler\, 2017; Oberauer & Lewandowsky\, 2019). Due to this\, theories are often not clearly accepted or refuted\, tending to come and go with little of the cumulative progress often associated with scientific knowledge. In this presentation\, I aim to look at how the replication and theory crises interact in social and psychological science with particular emphasis on the relationship between replication and theory development. Following an overview of both crises\, the first half of the presentation will look at the way in which replications can support theory development\, covering the identification of robust phenomena\, the identification of  effects’ boundary conditions\, and the evaluation of theories’ predictions. The second half of the presentation will cover a number of more recent arguments suggesting that well-specified theory is required for replications to be informative (Irvine\, 2021; Klein\, 2014; Muthukrishna & Henrich\, 2019). I will argue against a strong reading of this position.

SUMMARY:Language and Mind Seminar: Jack Shardlow (University of Edinburgh)
DESCRIPTION:Title: Motion(less) Pictures and Temporal Appearances \nAbstract: In this session I will present some work-in-progress which connects issues in the philosophy of mind\, concerning temporal appearances\, with the metaphysics of aesthetics\, while also incorporating some insights regarding our use of perceptual verbs. \nViewing typical moving images (i.e.\, animations/video recordings)\, we see what appears to be a variety of objects\, subjects\, and their various respective activities unfolding over time. Viewing a still image (i.e.\, paintings/photographs) we also see what appears to be a variety of objects and subjects\, and we see them as appearing to be engaged in various activities\, though we do not see what appears to be these activities unfolding over time. This should sound much like common sense. Yet\, the tenability of these claims depends on making explicit much that is only implicit. To make good sense of our experiential encounter with imagistic representations of activity\, we need to say more about our talk of ‘temporal appearances’\, and the comparisons and contrasts between the appearances presented by moving images and still images. Ultimately\, I argue that we should make room for two dissociable forms of temporal appearance: a dynamic pattern of appearance of ϕ-ing over time\, and the appearance of an object as an object that is ϕ-ing. \nOne further key aim in the talk is drawing the proper distinction between still and moving images. As noted by Danto (2006) and Walton (2008)\, moving images of static scenes can be visually indistinguishable from still images of the same scene; yet the two are experienced differently. I argue that this observation can be best explained\, with the two dissociable forms of temporal appearance\, if – unlike Danto and Walton – we take the differentia between still and moving images to simply be that the latter presents a duration\, while the former does not. While this might sound like common sense\, in making this case I dispute claims which notable authors have said to be ‘obvious’ (e.g.\, Carroll 2021).

SUMMARY:Metaphysics and Logic Seminar: Jarred Snodgrass (University of St Andrews and University of Stirling)
DESCRIPTION:Title: On the Hyperintensions of Properties \nAbstract: Hyperintensionalists encounter two serious problems that cast doubt on their view of property identity\, both stem from when insufficient attention is paid to the hyperintensions of properties. The first problem is what I call the ‘Granularity Problem’. It is the problem of finding a criterion of identity for properties that can distinguish between co-intensional properties. The second problem is what I call the ‘Difference-Maker Problem’. It is the problem of determining what makes a given hyperintensional distinction between properties a non-representational difference and not merely a representational difference. In this paper\, I propose a hyperintensional theory of property identity and show how it resolves each problem. After that\, I consider two objections to this theory and defend it from both of them.
