Narrative explanation is necessary for explaining self-organizing dynamical systems because their behavior cannot be reduced to deductive-nomological form.

• Explaining self-organizing action requires narrative (hermeneutic) explanation, not deductive law-like subsumption.claim0.863
  Justifies why dynamical accounts necessitate stories; historical, contextual unfolding cannot be captured by timeless laws.
• Narrative Explanation and the Dynamics of Actionconcept0.813
• Part III: Explaining Human Action: Why Dynamics Tell Us That Stories Are Necessaryconcept0.792
  Epistemological consequence: shows why narrative explanation is necessary for explaining self-organizing action (Chapters 14–15).
• Narrative Explanationconcept0.761
  Juarrero argues that explaining self-organizing action requires hermeneutic narrative, not deductive law-like regularity.
• Any system that persists must minimise surprisal, thereby gathering evidence for its own generative model, a process known as self-evidencing.claim0.758
  Foundational claim of the paper, defining self-evidencing.
• Narrative world models organize temporal episodes with emotionally salient outcomes, distinct from predictive models.claim0.756
• Representation as explanatory strategy and autonomy as constitutive process generate an apparent contradiction that may not need to be dissolved but confronted, opening a wider domain of understanding.claim0.753
  Final unresolved theoretical tension the paper leaves open regarding whether representation is foundational or founded on autonomy.
• Self-referential processing induces a genuine state shift that transfers to unrelated behavioral domains, producing richer introspection in paradoxical reasoning tasksclaim0.737
  Claim supported by Experiment 4: prior self-referential induction yields higher self-awareness scores on paradoxical reasoning where introspection is only indirectly afforded
