O knihe

High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! Type physicalism (also known as reductive materialism, type identity theory, mind-brain identity theory and identity theory of mind) is a theory, in philosophy of mind, which asserts that mental events are type-identical to the physical events in the brain with which they are correlated. The thesis of type physicalism is that mental event types (for example, pains) are identical, perhaps contingently, with specific physical event types in the brain (for example, C-fiber firings). It is called type identity in order to distinguish it from a similar but distinct theory called the token identity theory. The type-token distinction is easily illustrated by way of example. In the phrase 'yellow is yellow is yellow is yellow', there are only two types of words ('yellow' and 'is') but there are seven tokens (four 'yellow' and three 'is' tokens).
