Papers

• “Can Deficits in Mental Imagery occur without Visual Agnosia?” — A short review of a contemporary paper by V. Moro and her colleagues.

• “Meanings Ain’t Outside the Head” is my first paper for an introductory metaphysics class.

• “Where Does Your Brain Calculate Causal Effects of Your Actions?” — As it turns out, it’s happening in the medial prefrontal cortex. The paper reviewed here was probably one of the most interesitng ones I’ve read this semester.

• “Is Human vmPFC Involved in Coding Emotional Significance of Complex Scenes?” — Another short paper review.

• In my second metaphysics paper I argue that “Denial Is Not a Solution”. Where denial refers to the view that temporal parts do not exist (as put forward by presentists). What this is not a solution for, is the problem of change.

• I’ve also written a short paper for my class “Philosophy of Logic”. Here I defend the view with which Donald Rumsfeld raised laughter and consider its consequences for epistemic logics.

• “When Does Knowledge about Gender-Stereotyped Activities Emerge in Infancy?” — Again, a short review of a journal paper. This one was about infant looking times.

• “Action .?. Perception” is a paper I have written for my class “Philosophy of Psychology”. It might need revision at some point; but for now I guess this version will do.

• “To What Degree Do Genes and Environment Influence Psychoactive Substance Use?” — K. Kendler et al. conducted a study in 1796 twins; here I review their paper.

• “Could Columbus have discovered Australia?” — My last metaphysics paper this semester is about de re modal statements and the problem of transworld identity.

• My second paper in Philosophy of Logic is a longer one. I’m trying to introduce my own view on “possible worlds”.
