The new field of experimental philosophy has emerged as the methods
of psychological science have been brought to bear on traditional
philosophical issues. Oxford Studies in Experimental Philosophy is
the place to go to see outstanding new work in the field. It
features papers by philosophers, papers by psychologists, and
papers co-authored by people in both disciplines. The series
heralds the emergence of a truly interdisciplinary field in which
people from different disciplines are working together to address a
shared set of questions. This fourth volume showcases the growing
depth and breadth of the field. Epistemology and moral psychology
have been important foci of past work in experimental philosophy,
and the contributions in this volume attest to the ways in which
empirical methods are being used to add nuance to previous claims,
both theoretical and empirical. Alongside this progress on familiar
topics, we see an expansion to new areas in mind and metaphysics,
with studies exploring how people typically conceptualize different
aspects of mind and different kinds of minds, including the
extension of agentive modes of thinking well beyond the mental. The
volume concludes where the field began: with explicit attention to
philosophical methodology, and the ways in which empirical results
can inform philosophical debates.
