Claims (3)
- All attributions of cognition, including sentience, are always inferred on the basis of embodied behaviours, including verbal self-report in humans.Stronger version: all cognition attributions rely on observable behavior.
- Intentions are not entirely in the head; they extend into the environment via feedback loops and embodied interaction.
- Testing theories of self-illusion requires dual process: using knowledge of human self-experience while testing effects in human and other minds.Author's methodological assertion: integration of contemplative insight with computational modeling.
Findings (1)
- Approximately 85% of subjects perceive configurations analytically while 15% perceive figurally; figural perception is inherent in material and can be trained.Early empirical result from Alexander's cognitive experiments showing that holistic perception of wholeness is less common but more 'real' than analytical categorization.
