Part 3: Metaphysics of Mind

3.1 Supervenience

3.1a Psychophysical Supervenience (Kim, etc)

Crane, T. 1991. Why indeed? Papineau on supervenience. Analysis 51:32-7. (Google)

Contra Papineau 1989: the assumption of completeness is false or trivial. Maybe the mental is part of a complete physics. With response by Papineau.
Elugardo, R. 1988. Against weak psychophysical supervenience. Dialectica 42:129-43. (Google)
Various objections to Kim's arguments for supervenience. Not all internal states relevant to I/O relations are psychological states. Strange.
Hendel, G. 2002. On what does the issue of supervenience and psychophysical dependence depend? Dialogue: Canadian Philosophical Review 41. (Google)

Kim, J. 1979. Causality, identity and supervenience in the mind-body problem. Midwest Studies in Philosophy 4:31-49. (Cited by 12 | Google)

Supervenience of the mental on the physical is what is required to make mental causation possible. Very nice.
Kim, J. 1982. Psychophysical supervenience. Philosophical Studies 41:51-70. Reprinted in Supervenience and Mind (Cambridge University Press, 1993). (Cited by 30 | Google)
Internal mental states (i.e. ones that are not rooted outside) supervene on synchronous internal physical states, and internal states are all that is relevant in the explanation of behavior.
Kim, J. 1982. Psychophysical supervenience as a mind-body theory. Cognition and Brain Theory 5:129-47. (Google)
Distinguishes weak (within-world) vs strong (across-worlds) supervenience. Relates to reduction, internal/external mental states, and various theories.

Loar, B. 1993. Can we confirm supervenient properties? In (E. Villanueva, ed) Naturalism and Normativity. Ridgeview. (Google)
If mental properties are supervenient but irreducible to physical/functional properties, we can't confirm them. Confirmation requires an indispensable explanatory role, which irreducibility precludes. With comments by Schiffer.

Supervenience is all we need for materialism. Various materialist arguments (unity, "nothing but", history, fear of darkness, simplicity, law) don't support physical exhaustion & token identity, over and above supervenience.

Supervenience is neither necessary nor sufficient for materialism. With various (contentious) counterexamples. So we need a different formulation.
Kirk, R. 1996. Strict implication, supervenience, and physicalism. Australasian Journal of Philosophy 74:244-57. (Cited by 1 | Google)
Argues for strict implication rather than supervenience as a formulation of "minimal physicalism" (unless supervenience is formulated just right).
Lewis, D. 1983. New work for a theory of universals. Australasian Journal of Philosophy. (Cited by 158 | Google)

We individuate mental events by their causal role, but we can't individuate causes uniquely. So each mental event has multiple physical correlates, and token identity doesn't hold.

Supervenience doesn't imply token identity, and Davidson's argument for token identity equivocates on "event". But weak supervenience (mentally discernible worlds are physically discernible) is all we need. With nice examples.

Physical/psychological token identity is no good: you can't individuate physical events without psychological predicates.

Can't isolate the physical token of a belief, say, as it's always accompanied by other beliefs. Meaning doesn't come in discrete tokens.

The identity theory is meaningless, if identity is analyzed as spatiotemporal coincidence, as thoughts don't have location. Thoughts also require context. Even if identity holds, explaining brain doesn't imply explaining mind.

Mental causation is incompatible with strong supervenience and causal closure of physics, as we can't distinguish high-level causes from non-causes. So reject the metaphysics and make explanation prior to causation.
