Concept empiricism: A treatment of the evidence for the amodal representational vehicles

In the last decades, the empiricist theories of concepts have managed to have a certain weight in psychology and in philosophy. In this paper I intend to evaluate the empirical support that Prinz's theory of concepts (2002, 2005) possesses, according to which all concepts and cognitive processe...

In this paper I intend to evaluate the empirical support that Prinz's theory of concepts (2002, 2005) possesses, according to which all concepts and cognitive processes are conveyed by modal representations. In particular, I intend to evaluate if, and to what extent, the empirical evidence cited by the empiricism of concepts is favorable to this theory and, secondly, I intend to consider the case of numerical representations, while it seems to be a case that It challenges the sufficiency of concept empiricism to account for all the phenomena that a theory of concepts should explain. En las últimas décadas, las teorías empiristas de conceptos han logrado tener cierto peso en psicología y en filosofía. En este trabajo me propongo evaluar el apoyo empírico que posee la teoría de conceptos de Prinz (2002, 2005), según la cual todos los conceptos y procesos cognitivos se encuentran vehiculados por representaciones modales. En particular, me propongo evaluar si, y en qué medida, la evidencia empírica citada por el empirismo de conceptos es favorable a dicha teoría y, en segundo lugar, me propongo considerar el caso de las representaciones numéricas, en tanto parece ser un caso que desafía la suficiencia del empirismo de conceptos para dar cuenta de todos los fenómenos que una teoría de conceptos debería explicar.
