Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

adoption of a policy by some agent, where policies include as limiting cases plans (policies adopted for just one occasion) and actions (plans with only one component), and the agent adopting the policy may or may not be identical to the set of individuals carrying out the reasoning. Philosophers are interested in practical reasoning from two points of view: explanation and guidance; for the distinction, see Raz's introduction to his (1978). The explanatory interest leads them to consider such questions as whether a desire-belief model is the correct explanation of intentional action, whether reasons are causes, how akrasia ("weakness of will") is possible, what is the difference between akrasia and (possibly self-deceptive) hypocrisy, and whether all reasoning-produced motivation is partly derivative from motivation already present in the reasoner ("motivational internalism"). Although the investigation of such questions is sometimes relevant to questions related to guidance, and ind

Not calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)

The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.

Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
