This study refines an existing ontology by incorporating interoceptive experience and language statistics. These factors are crucial for better defining intangible representations within the ontology.
Area of Science:
- Cognitive Science
- Linguistics
- Philosophy of Mind
Background:
- Gilead and colleagues' ontology distinguishes between tangible and intangible representations.
- The definition of intangible representations in the current ontology is underdeveloped.
Purpose of the Study:
- To propose a more robust framework for understanding intangible representations.
- To suggest incorporating interoceptive experience and language statistical distributions into existing ontologies.
Main Methods:
- Conceptual analysis of existing ontological frameworks.
- Theoretical integration of interoceptive and linguistic data.
Main Results:
- Identified interoceptive experience as a key component for defining intangible representations.
- Highlighted the importance of statistical distributions of entities in language for representing abstract concepts.
Conclusions:
- Gilead and colleagues' ontology requires enhancement to adequately define intangible representations.
- Interoceptive experience and linguistic patterns offer a promising direction for future ontological development.
