Generics as reflecting conceptual knowledge
Hampton, J. A. (2012). Generics as reflecting conceptual knowledge. Recherches Linguistiques de Vincennes, 41(41), pp. 9-24. doi: 10.4000/rlv.2036
Abstract
Generics are proposed to reflect the content of the conceptual system, whose prototype structure and vague boundaries make an unreliable basis for traditional treatments of truth and logic. Examples from the psychological literature are used to illustrate the relation between generics, similarity‐based reasoning and concepts.
