Abstract:
Much of information science theory assumes a type of rationality in how individuals process the world around them but the impact of misinformation and disinformation along with the polarization of society into competing information factions calls for new understandings around our relationships to information. Advances in neuroscience and psychology shed new light on how the brain processes information using both conscious and unconscious systems. Current theory in neuroscience emphasizes that the mind is not a unified whole but a network of networks constructing reality to anticipate needs. Kn

This chapter analyzes patterns of the interactional stance on blogs written by self-identified barebackers, gay men who eschew the use of condoms.

After a discussion of the controversies that surrounded barebacker identity, the chapter examines various types of stance in barebacker discourse. Barebackers use stan

Abstract:
Imagination plays a central role in theater. This chapter first examines how psychology has apprehended theater—as a metaphor, a tool, a cultural experience and as a sociocultural practice. It then examines the particular case of documentary theater, a genre used to bring on stage informative contents aimed at developing the viewer’s critical stance. Altogether, the authors propose a sociocultural understanding of imagination, and thus show how more specifically the theatrical choices made in the recent play Décris-Ravage triggers the viewers’ active imagination, invite them to reflect on the

This chapter asks what stance is morally appropriate as we consider when, whether, and how to assist persons experiencing physical, emotional, or intellectual disability. Appealing to a variety of intelligent and observant thinkers for inspiration (Ralph Barton Perry, Helen Keller, and Immanuel Kant), it argues that one important aspect of such a stance is an attitude of reciprocal beneficence. This has three central aspects: a perspective of fellowship acknowledging the disabled and the currently able as members of the community of vulnerable human agents; a developed sympathy attuned to gaps

This chapter examines two recent views that have self-consciously been labeled by their authors as “scientism.” Alexander Rosenberg’s scientism is the view that the methods of science are the only reliable ways to secure knowledge of anything.

Don Ross, James Ladyman, and David Spurrett’s scientism as propounded in Every Thing Must Go is the view that science is our only guide to the objective features of the world.

A paradigm is a world view held by members of a research community. It determines what humans can know and how to undertake research to generate knowledge. It shapes how research is undertaken and how quality is judged. In mixed methods evaluations combining qualitative research and RCTs, the implicit paradigm is often post-positivism. There are alternative paradigms such as participatory action research and realist evaluation. The status of qualitative research within a mixed methods evaluation may depend on the paradigm adopted.

This chapter articulates the different ways by which philosophy and religion approach knowledge. The philosopher seems to ascribe intrinsic value to knowledge. The religious poet, by contrast, appears to instrumentalize it into an enabler of a deeper bond with God. Four features of Paradise Lost’s unique kind of poetry are presented as both promoting and expressing the latter stance to knowledge. These include (1) the manner whereby the poem’s language fights attempts to relate to it as if it were a transparent description, (2) the speaker’s humility (by presenting himself as a mouthpiece for

The belief that people are free human beings is central to much explanation of human behavior as well as to a broad set of social practices such as law, ethics, and politics.

This chapter first examines some of the claims made by neuroscience research that challenge beliefs in free moral agency.

However, limits should not be placed on what science can study and we cannot say in advance what the limits of future science will be.

Abstract Starting-point epistemology (SPE) is a new position that, coupled with agent-centered rationality, is the key to resolving philosophical scepticism. SPE acknowledges that metacognitively sophisticated agents know that they know things and know (something) about the methods by which this happens. Agent-centered rationality implies that a metacognitively sophisticated agent should only desert a knowledge claim because of a challenge they recognize to be fatal to that claim.

It is proposed that actual entities stand in three fundamental relations: mereological, spatiotemporal, and resemblance relations. These relations govern the fundamental entities. Each fundamental entity stands in parthood relations, spatiotemporal relations, and resemblance relations to other entities. The resu
