But what would be the psychological savvy of this global meta-mind if we (its constituent mind-parts) still don't know what/who we are?
Mono-causal explanations rarely fit a multitasking animal like us, with a meta-level mind like ours.
With effective and efficient population-based meta-heuristics in mind, how to generate the offspring with good convergence and diversity properties is a problem to be solved.
He is the editor of "Meta-Ethics," published by Dartmouth in 1995, and his books, "Ethics and the A Priori: Selected Essays on Moral Psychology and Meta-Ethics" and "Mind, Morality and Explanation: Selected Collaborations," are forthcoming from Cambridge University Press and Oxford University Press, respectively.
It is perhaps not hard to understand, at least in outline, how work in areas like metaphysics, philosophy of mind, meta-ethics and epistemology might be aimed at the construction of synthetic theories supported by a posteriori evidence.
Here we chose to evaluate task-unrelated thoughts retrospectively in order to avoid difficulties associated with the repeated presentation of on-line thought probes (e.g., meta-awareness of mind wandering may modulate the contents of such activity).
Here we determine to what extent cross-inventory mapping is feasible, for the purpose of a GWAS meta-analysis in mind.
For example when carrying out multiple studies simultaneously, prospective meta-analyses [ 37, 38] have been used to design a collection of studies with the prospect of an eventual meta-analysis in mind, so that important elements of study design complement each other across studies [ 39].
That much meta could melt your mind.
