Behavioural evidence inconclusive
Einwand
1
#971
The behavioural evidence can't determine whether pictorial or propositional representations offer an adequate explanation of mental imagery. Instead, the evidence supports a theory about the
process
via which representations are employed.
John Anderson, 1978.
Note
: Anderson supports ths argument with a formal proof.
