Introduction: Philosophy in and Philosophy of Cognitive Science
Authors:Andrew Brook
Affiliation:Department of Philosophy and Institute of Cognitive Science, Carleton University
Abstract:
Despite being there from the beginning, philosophical approaches have never had a settled place in cognitive research and few cognitive researchers not trained in philosophy have a clear sense of what its role has been or should be. We distinguish philosophy in cognitive research and philosophy of cognitive research. Concerning philosophy in cognitive research, after exploring some standard reactions to this work by nonphilosophers, we will pay particular attention to the methods that philosophers use. Being neither experimental nor computational, they can leave others bewildered. Thought experiments are the most striking example but not the only one. Concerning philosophy of cognitive research, we will pay particular attention to its power to generate and test normative claims, claims about what should and should not be done.
Keywords:Philosophy of cognitive science  Philosophy in cognitive science  Philosophical methods  Thought experiments  Justifying norms
