  • An Interpretationist Approach to the Thinking Mind DISSERTATION
    Thought Without Language: an Interpretationist Approach to the Thinking Mind DISSERTATION Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of The Ohio State University By Michael Dean Jaworski Graduate Program in Philosophy The Ohio State University 2010 Dissertation Committee: Neil Tennant, Advisor William Taschek Ben Caplan Copyright by Michael Dean Jaworski 2010 Abstract I defend an account of thought on which non-linguistic beings can be thinkers. This result is significant in that many philosophers have claimed that the ability to think depends on the ability to use language. These opponents of my view note that our everyday understanding of our own cognitive activities qua thought bestows upon those activities the propositional structure of sentences and the inferential norms of public linguistic practice. They hold that our attributions of thought to non-linguistic beings project non-existent structure onto the cognitive activities of those beings, and assess the beings’ activities according to standards to which the beings bear no responsibility. So, despite the complex neural and behavioral activities of many non-linguistic beings, my opponents hold that those beings are not properly described as thinkers. To respond to my opponents successfully, one must not merely cite scientific and folk practices of thought attribution that permit thought to be attributed to some non- linguistic beings. My opponents’ insights might be taken to demonstrate a need to revise those practices, or to treat the attributions of thought to non-linguistic beings made within those practices as instrumentally valuable but technically false. Instead, my strategy is to acknowledge the language-like structure and norms of thought, and show that a non- linguistic being’s cognitive activities might nonetheless have that structure and be subject ii to those norms.

  • Willis and the Virtuosi
    Forum on Public Policy The Scientific Method through the Lens of Neuroscience; From Willis to Broad J. Lanier Burns, Professor, Research Professor of Theological Studies, Senior Professor of Systematic Theology, Dallas Theological Seminar Abstract: In an age of unprecedented scientific achievement, I argue that the neurosciences are poised to transform our perceptions about life on earth, and that collaboration is needed to exploit a vast body of knowledge for humanity’s benefit. The scientific method distinguishes science from the humanities and religion. It has evolved into a professional, specialized culture with a common language that has synthesized technological forces into an incomparable era in terms of power and potential to address persistent problems of life on earth. When Willis of Oxford initiated modern experimentation, ecclesial authorities held intellectuals accountable to traditional canons of belief. In our secularized age, science has ascended to dominance with its contributions to progress in virtually every field. I will develop this transition in three parts. First, modern experimentation on the brain emerged with Thomas Willis in the 17th Century. A conscientious Anglican, he postulated a “corporeal soul,” so that he could pursue cranial research. He belonged to a gifted circle of scientifically minded scholars, the Virtuosi, who assisted him with his Cerebri anatome. He coined a number of neurological terms, moved research from the traditional humoral theory to a structural emphasis, and has been remembered for the arterial structure at the base of the brain, the “Circle of Willis.” Second, the scientific method is briefly described as a foundation for understanding its development in neuroscience.

HAPPY is a feature‐length documentary that leads viewers on a journey across 5 continents in search of the keys to happiness. The film addresses many of the fundamental issues we face in today’s society: how do we balance the allure of money, fame and social status with our needs for strong relationships, health and personal fulfillment? Through remarkable human stories and cutting‐edge science, HAPPY leads us toward a deeper understanding of why and how we can pursue more fulfilling, healthier and happier lives. HAPPY takes the viewer from the bayous of Louisiana to the deserts of Namibia, from the beaches of Brazil to the mountains of Bhutan. Listen to the wisdom of a Kolkata rickshaw driver, the compassion of a volunteer at Mother Teresa’s Home for the Dying and the knowledge of some of the world’s leading happiness researchers. Witness as middle school students applaud the bravery of their classmates during a moving presentation on bullying. HAPPY combines real‐life human drama and cutting‐edge science to provide insights into the mysteries of happiness. In 2005, director Tom Shadyac (Liar Liar, Patch Adams, Bruce Almighty) handed Roko Belic a New York Times article entitled, “A New Measure of Well‐Being From a Happy Little Kingdom.” The article ranked the United States 23rd on its list of happiest countries.

  • The Neurobiology of Freud's Repetition Compulsion
    The Neurobiology of Freud’s Repetition Compulsion 21 The Neurobiology of Freud’s Repetition Compulsion Denise K. Shull The paper develops a hypothesis regarding how the processes of neurological development could underlie the enactment of Freud’s Repetition Compulsion. Drawing largely on Allan Schore’s work in infant neurodevelopment as it relates to the mother and Joseph LeDoux’s study in fear and implicit emotional memory, the paper outlines the mechanisms of neurological growth and operation. It builds a case for the importance of a right brain socio-emotional circuit in the incarnation of compulsions to repeat. Rita Mae Brown, in Starting from Scratch: A Different Kind of Writer’s Manual, defines insanity as “doing the same thing over and over and expecting a different result.” Can we say that the experience of unwanted repetitive circumstances is precisely what motivates people to seek help? Isn’t this phenomenon precisely what we aim to resolve? “Patients come to us hoping to escape the repetition. … Understanding the repetition in the transference will eventually lead to understanding the patient’s perception of the past” (Meadow, 1989, p. 161). Freud originally spoke of undesirable repetitions in his 1920 treatise Beyond the Pleasure Principle. He described how some people behave not according to the “pleasure principle” but apparently in response to a “compulsion to repeat:” “...people all of whose human relationships have the same outcome: such as the benefactor who is abandoned in anger after a time by each of his protégés, however much they may otherwise differ from one another, ...or the man whose friendships all end in betrayal by his friend; or the man who time after time in the course of his life raises someone else into a position of great private or public authority and then after a certain interval, himself upsets that authority and replaces him with a new one; or, again, the lover each of whose love affairs with a woman passes through the same phases and reaches the same conclusion” (p.

  • Cultivating Well-Being: the 5-3-1-Practice
    Cultivating Well-Being: The 5-3-1 Practice World-renowned neuroscientist Richard Davidson at the University of Wisconsin works to find connections between the brain and our happiness. His research has shown that we can intentionally change our brain and learn to be happier. “By focusing on wholesome thoughts, for example, and directing our intentions in those ways, we can potentially influence the plasticity of our brains and shape them in ways that can be beneficial.” – Richard Davidson Well-being experts at the Center for Healthy Minds (CHM) have come up with three activities to try that are simple, easy and rewarding. The 5-3-1 Practice 1. Meditate for 5 minutes. For many people, focusing on your breath or taking a break from your to-do list helps de-stress and calm the mind. This can help you feel more energized, relaxed and ready to tackle the day. Shilagh Mirgain, a collaborator at CHM and psychologist at UW Health, mentions that some studies suggest that meditation can create new gray matter in the prefrontal cortex area of the brain, which is associated with attention, emotion regulation and decision-making. 2. Make a list of 3 good things that happened in your day. The three things can be anything from having a really good cup of coffee to learning a new technique for quilting. By listing good things in your day, you are focusing on the positive aspects of your day, which can help you feel happier. Research suggests that there is a positive relationship between gratitude and higher levels of well-being.

    Richard Davidson Biography from Current Biography (2004) Copyright (c) by The H. W. Wilson Company. All rights reserved. Davidson, Richard J. Dec. 12, 1951- Neuroscientist; educator Like many of his colleagues in the field of neuroscience, Richard J. Davidson has spent much of his career studying the brain activity of individuals suffering from depression, anxiety, or phobias. Unlike most other neuroscientists, however, he has also investigated the brain patterns of people who appear to be happy. Davidson is a pioneer in affective neuroscience, the study of the relationships between the brain and emotions: that is, the links between the activities of the billions of neurons that make up the brain and the intangible positive and negative feelings that humans define as emotions: excitement, distress, happiness, anger, and a myriad of others. Among his most significant findings, he has discovered that the left frontal cortex is associated with feelings of good will and happiness, and it is more active in the brains of people who are generally optimistic, cheerful, and enthusiastic than in those of individuals who are usually pessimistic, gloomy, and dispirited; it is also more active in men and women who meditate than in those who do not. Moreover, he has found, activity in those areas of the brain indicates in babies as young as 10 months the nature of their apparently inborn temperaments. He has also discovered that training in meditation can lead to measurable changes in the brain, along with increases in a person's feelings of well-being and confidence and decreases in feelings of stress and insecurity.
