From a priori + -ism, after French apriorisme.

The linguistic apriorism of Chomsky has stimulated some psychologists to search for nonlinguistic roots of language development.

1982, Dan I Slobin, in Eric Wanner & Lila Gleitman, Language Acquisition, p. 128

What was needed for modern science to take shape was a renunciation of their bookish a priorism, with its Aristotelian notion that all things can be deduced by logical, abstract argument from (ultimately arbitrary) first principles.

2006, Philip Ball, The Devil's Doctor, Arrow, published 2007, page 51:

ephebophile

LL-Q1860 (eng)-Flame, not lame-ephebophile.wav

From Ancient Greek ἔφηβος (éphēbos, “adolescent”) + -phile.

der

According to the age of the attracting person homosexuals are divisible into ephebophiles (lovers of youths, 14-21), androphiles (grown men up to the period of old age), gerontophiles (lovers of the aged) and pedophiles (lovers of small boys). The two latter are not as conspicuous as the two former, which compromise 45 per cent of the whole. The corresponding divisions in women are parthenophiles (lovers of young women, virgins), gynecophiles (lovers of adult women), grasphiles (lovers of old women), and korophiles (lovers of undeveloped girls).

1914, State Hospital Bulletin, volume 7, pages 351-352:

The hebephile sees the female adolescent as having adult development but vulnerability. There may also be a sense of safety from rejection because the hebephile may have had actual or perceived poor sexual performance with adult partners. The ephebophile is even more likely to reflect the emphasis on youth in society; in this case, the gay culture's emphasis on youthful appearance.

1989 Intervention Strategies for Sexual Abuse page 94 (and also page 97 of Tough Customers: Counseling Unwilling Clients)

The term ephebophilia seems to have been coined by Magnus Hirschfeld in his Wesen der Liebe (1906), where he applied to sexually mature youths from puberty up to the age of 20; in his 1914 magnum opus, Die Homosexualitat des Mannes und des Weibes, Hirschfeld specified the range of love objects as from "the beginning to the completion of maturity, so approximately ages 14-21." The German research estimated that 45 of all homosexuals were ephebophiles. For women, he used the term "parthenophiles."

However, reliabilist accounts of a priori knowledge are paradigmatically naturalistic, and although they are psychologistic in the sense that they locate warrant within the psychological processes and methods that generate belief, if correct, they cannot be faulted for failing to establish the objectivity of their target beliefs: a belief is apriori-justified on a reliabilist account of justification just in case it is solely the result of a process that is, in fact, reliable and is indifferent to the particulars of experiential input.

sortal

An Essay Concerning Human Understanding
John Locke

From sort + -al. Coined by John Locke in 1690 in his An Essay Concerning Human Understanding.

But, it being evident that things are ranked under names into sorts or species, only as they agree to certain abstract ideas, to which we have annexed those names, the essence of each genus, or sort, comes to be nothing but that abstract idea which the general, or sortal (if I may have leave so to call it from sort, as I do general from genus), name stands for.

1690, John Locke, “Chapter III: Of General Terms”, in An Essay Concerning Human Understanding, Book III:

(philosophy) Of or pertaining to a sort, or kind.

The possession of sortal concepts is a prerequisite for philosophers like Wiggins or Lowe in determining the nature and extent of our referential capacities.

sensibilia

For in the past I have been aware of sensibilia; and I have sensed instances of sensibilia temporally related to one another.

1950, Winston H F Barnes, The Philosophical Predicament:

Russell also brought in the sense-data sensed by other persons and even unsensed sense-data, to which he gave the name of sensibilia.

1969, Alfred Jules Ayer, Metaphysics and Common Sense:

It is because their being as sensibilia does not depend upon their being intentional objects for anyone […]

1988, Ramon M Lemos, Metaphysical Investigations:

Among the things which human beings do are (a) think of sensibilia in their absence, (b) make mental or verbal pictures of sensibilia, […]

(philosophy) Things that can be sensed; stimuli.


nonself

en-noun

nonself (countable and uncountable, plural nonselfs or nonselves)

In plants, the ability to recognize self from nonself plays an important role in fertilization, because self-fertilization will result in less diverse offspring than fertilization with pollen from another individual.

1838, David King, “Two lectures, in reply to the speeches of Dr. Chalmers on church extension”, in Hume Tracts, Glasgow: David Robertson, page 21:

As the alternative norms and counterevidences are uncovered, it is the evaluator's task to determine inconsistency, contradiction, and subterfuge, and then to render his own verdict.

possibilium

All mental reference that purports to refer to something does indeed succeed in effecting such reference, although it may be a merely-hypothetical something that is at issue, a possibilium that merely quasi-exists.

2003, Nicholas Rescher, Imagining Irreality: A Study of Unreal Possibilities, →ISBN, page 59:

Now, it is true that both counterfactuals and ability claims can be given analyses in terms of possibilia.

2008 April 9, Peter A. Graham, “A defense of local miracle compatibilism”, in Philosophical Studies, volume 140, number 1, →DOI:

Whereas, on the “multiverse” interpretation, Modal Realism acknowledges physical possibilities only--and worse, (assuming either axiom S5 or axiom B) each possibilium ends up as a necessary physical existent.

2011, T Parent, Modal Realism and the Meaning of 'Exist':

But here we face the particularity problem: that semantics seems to be ruled out by the seeming impossibility of specifying a unique possibilium, using either of the two recognised mechanisms underlying normal reference.

2012, J. Ross, The Semantics of Media, →ISBN, page 63:

An unrealized option is then a concrete possibilium, the realization it would have if it were realized. An unrealized event may be a possibilium realized in a nonactual possible world and having concrete features, such as a duration.

2015, Paul Weirich, Models of Decision-Making, →ISBN, page 215:

1845, J. L---y, “The Myths of 'Harmony'”, in The Musical World, page 291:

[…] but it is reasonable to see a certain amount of causal and functional integration as a hallmark of systematicity.

2007 March 6, Andrew Sneddon, “The depths and shallows of psychological externalism”, in Philosophical Studies, volume 138, number 3, →DOI:

At times there is consistency to Yule’s headword spelling (e.g. long-a /aː/ is rendered au except when word final, where it is rendered a), but there is also inconsistency (e.g. short-a /ʌ/ is sometimes rendered a and sometimes u). My analysis indicates the lack of any overarching systematicity.

fictionalism

en-noun

fictionalism (countable and uncountable, plural fictionalisms)

But it seems to me that modal fictionalism is also incredible: normally we do not think that there are countless theories and stories besides the ones we will ever tell, much less that they are infinitely complex and infinitely long and so that it would be humanly impossible to tell them.

2007 July 17, Chris John Daly, “Fictionalism and the attitudes”, in Philosophical Studies, volume 139, number 3, →DOI:

(philosophy) Of, pertaining to or supporting compatibilism, the belief that free will and determinism are compatible ideas.


compatibilist

Moreover, suggestions that compatibilists can refute hard determinism on non-semantic grounds are misguided, building more into hard determinism than an adherent of this view needs to accept.

2009, Susan Pockett, William P. Banks, Shaun Gallagher, editors, Does Consciousness Cause Behavior?, MIT Press, →ISBN, page 128:

To which the compatibilists replied, This is still totally artificial—choosing when to leap into an abyss or whether to turn left or right in a driving simulator tells us nothing about our free will in choosing between, say, becoming a nudist versus a Buddhist, or becoming an algologist versus an allergologist.

intensionally

en-adv

intensionally (comparative more intensionally, superlative most intensionally)

more intensionally (comparative)
most intensionally (superlative)

Indeed the whole point of Aristotle’s example of truth depending on being was that the truth of the proposition and the existence of the man are intensionally equivalent, yet there is an asymmetry of dependence.

2008 August 13, Jonathan Schaffer, “Truthmaker commitments”, in Philosophical Studies, volume 141, number 1, →DOI:

A term is treated either extensionally as a class of objects or intensionally as a set of properties. The ‘intent’ of the term ‘dog’ includes all the properties that are included in the intent of ‘mammal’. The intensional treatment of ‘dogs are mammals’ interprets this sentence as true because the semantic interpretation of the subject is a superset of the interpretation of the predicate. On the extensional treatment of the sentence, however, the sentence is true because the interpretation of the subject (the class of dogs) is a subset of the interpretation of the predicate (the set of mammals).

Indeed it is only possible to learn any thing at all of these really curious and interesting aboriginal people, by cross-examining living men, and ascertaining what they remember to have heard their fathers or their grandfathers say.

intelligence agency

en-noun

intelligence agency (plural intelligence agencies)

A mysterious maverick to say the least, the Illusive Man heads the Cerberus network. Dubbed "the illusive empire" by investigators, Cerberus is an allegedly untraceable syndicate of private intelligence agencies, biotics laboratories, engineering and scientific research teams, and lucrative front companies.

2010, BioWare, Mass Effect 2 (Science Fiction), Redwood City: Electronic Arts, →OCLC, PC, scene: Cerberus: The Illusive Man Codex entry:

A governmental agency that is tasked with information gathering (known in the context as "intelligence") for purposes of national security and defense.

governmental agency devoted to information gathering


expressivist

Since cognitivism is already a commitment of SEN, I see no harm in assuming it so long as we keep in mind that one possible lesson of MTE is that the content of moral predicates is [primarily] non-cognitive or expressivist.

2007 May 26, Michael Rubin, “Sound intuitions on Moral Twin Earth”, in Philosophical Studies, volume 139, number 3, →DOI:

(ethics) Pertaining to or advocating expressivism, the doctrine that the primary function of moral sentences and sensation sentences (like "I am in pain") is to express an evaluative attitude, rather than stating a fact

many-sorted logic

en-noun

many-sorted logic (plural many-sorted logics)

(logic) A logic that directly supports classification of entities into disjunct sorts.


mathematical realism

(philosophy) A doctrine that mathematical entities such as numbers and triangles exist independently of the human mind.


propositional attitude

propositional attitude (plural propositional attitudes)

Of course, the problem applies not only to belief, but also to a host of other mental phenomena which may be called propositional attitudes: doubting, considering, desiring, etc. In all these cases it seems natural to express the phenomenon in the form "A doubts p," "A desires p," etc., which makes it appear as though we were dealing with a relation between a person and a proposition.

1922, Bertrand Russell, “Introduction”, in Ludwig Wittgenstein's Tractatus Logico-Philosophicus:

(philosophy) A relational mental state connecting a person to a proposition, such as believing that, desiring that, or hoping that.

1858, The Atlantic Monthly, Volume 2, No. 1, Gottfried Wilhem von Leibnitz,
He [Locke] repudiated any supposed dowry of original truths or innate or connate ideas, and endeavored to show how, by acting on the report of the senses and personal experience, the understanding arrives at all the ideas of which it is conscious. The mode of procedure in this case is empiricism; the result with Locke was sensualism,--more fully developed by Condillac, [18] in the next century.

For Sensualism the only source of human knowledge is sensation: everything reduces to transformed sensations.

1913, “Philosophy”, in Catholic Encyclopedia:

non-rational

In the total artistic process the two phases—rational and non-rational, planful and inspirational—may be successive or simultaneous.

1959, Thomas Munro, “Art and Scientific Technology”, in Philosophy and Phenomenological Research, volume 19, number 3, page 400:

Holton, a Harvard physicist and science historian, introduces us to the two extremist factions he sees attacking science from both sides: the "new Dionysians" who would widen the spectrum of scientific knowledge to include nonrational experience and the "new Apollonians" who would restrict scientific investigation to dealing only with those questions that seem to guarantee rational solution from the outset.

1974 August 10, John Douglas, “Daedalus on the Challenges to Science”, in Science News, volume 106, number 6, page 92:

Although some nonrational elements may be inconsistent with legal ideals, others—emotions and intuitions of certain types, imagination, judgment, rhetorical persuasiveness (considered below)—are fully consistent with those ideals.

1996, Paul Gewirtz, “On ‘I Know It When I See It’”, in The Yale Law Journal, volume 105, number 4, page 1036:

arationality

Croce's early treatise . . . was resolutely grounded in the identification of intuition and expression, of genius and taste, and in the amorality and arationality of all art.

1946, G. A. Borgese, “Literary Criticism in Italy during the Romantic Period,”, in Italica, volume 23, number 2, page 70:

Thus there appears to be very little doubt that arationality is one manifestation of stress which arises when goal-seeking man is confronted with conditions which becloud the outcome of his actions.

1962, L. S. Lewis, J. Lopreato, “Arationality, Ignorance, and Perceived Danger in Medical Practices,”, in American Sociological Review, volume 27, number 4, page 513:

This sort of view contrasts with a more ‘‘Humean’’ account that gives greater weight to the need for, to the relevance of, and to the fundamental arationality of desires. . . . [R]easons cannot by themselves provide adequate motivation for action.

2004, David Sosa, "A Big, Good Thing" (review of T.M. Scanlon's What We Owe to Each Other), Noûs, vol. 38, no. 2, p. 366

If the end-product of a man's philosophizing about the nature of the cosmos is the ultimate, arational matter, this will affect his moral opinion of the cosmos.

1938, Marten Ten Hoor, “The Philistines over Philosophy,”, in The Journal of Philosophy, volume 35, number 20, page 542:

Scientific knowledge is conceptual, rational, and testable. Mystical knowledge is usually aconceptual, arational, and does not lend itself to interpersonal testing.

1974, Ervin Laszlo, “Why Should I Believe in Science?”, in Philosophy and Phenomenological Research, volume 34, number 4, page 484:

Regarded with the objectivity of hindsight, the illusion appears arational, almost fantastic: it would be like being able both to lie and to trust other people at the same time.

1996, David Foster Wallace, Infinite Jest […], Boston, Mass., New York, N.Y.: Little, Brown and Company, →ISBN, page 146:

On the first view, emotions are purely biological phenomena. . . . They are arational and amoral, like other natural bodily functions.

2001, Ronald De Sousa, “Moral Emotions,”, in Ethical Theory and Moral Practice, volume 4, number 2, page 109:
