Representations (Hebrew)
Pasternak Anton
Description
Final assignment of the course: "Representations in Philosophy, Psychology and Cognitive Science".
In this essay I discussed the concept of mental representation and its role in explaining thought and perception. I compared different philosophical accounts of representation and evaluated their strengths. My conclusion was that while representation is a central concept, it must be defined carefully to avoid confusion, and I argued for a more precise and flexible understanding of how the mind represents the world.
