My paper “What Are Seemings?” was just accepted for publication at Ratio!
Here’s a link to the paper. I still have to make the style changes and add acknowledgements, but nothing of substance will be changed. Here’s the abstract.
What Are Seemings?
Abstract
We are all familiar with the phenomenon of a proposition seeming true. Many think that these seeming states can yield justified beliefs. Very few have seriously explored what these seeming states are. I argue that seeming states are not plausibly analyzed in terms of beliefs, partial beliefs, attractions to believe, or inclinations to believe. Given that the main candidates for analyzing seeming states are unsatisfactory, I argue for a brute view of seemings that treats seeming states as irreducible propositional attitudes.
Congratulations!
Congratulations Andy!
