如 M. J. Cain 所言，「認知科學的哲學是哲學的分支，討論對於認知的科學研究所產生的哲學問題」 (the philosophy of cognitive science is that branch of philosophy that addresses philosophical questions generated by the scientific study of cognition) (2016: ch.1 sec.1)。本課程是認知科學哲學的導論。有意願選課的同學應注意：目前對於課程的規劃仍有可能變動，因此同學務必出席第一堂課，以確切掌握具體課程內容。按照目前規劃，本課程分為兩部分。第一部分討論一些在認知科學哲學中具有核心地位的概念，例如功能與機制。在此基礎之上，課程第二部分將針對認知科學所探究的各種心智現象進行哲學反思。我們將討論的心智現象包含心理疾病、概念、語言、知覺、注意力等。As M. J. Cain said, "The philosophy of cognitive science is that branch of philosophy that addresses philosophical questions generated by the scientific study of cognition" ) (2016: ch.1 sec.1). This course is an introduction to the philosophy of cognitive science. Students who are willing to choose courses should note that the current course plans are still subject to change, so students must attend the first class to accurately grasp the specific course content. According to current planning, this course is divided into two parts. The first part discusses some concepts that are central to the philosophy of cognitive science, such as function and mechanism. On this basis, the second part of the course will conduct philosophical reflections on various mental phenomena explored by cognitive science. The mental phenomena we will discuss include mental illness, concepts, language, perception, attention, and more.
