Processes, Acts, and Experiences: Three Stances on the Problem of Intentionality
Abstract
The concept of intentionality addresses "aboutness," how one thing can be about, or refer to, some other thing. The argument I present in this article is that intentionality is an essential ecological concept that depends equally on process (the domain of physics), act (the domain of biology), and experience (the domain of psychology). The meaning of intentionality does not reside in any 1 of these realms, but rests simultaneously on all 3. A case is made for intentionality being rooted in a ubiquitous cosmological scheme that underwrites all systems no less than does the universal causality scheme.

On more ambitious physical proposals, the availability of specific affordances depends on circumstances, while their bare possibility is given with the laws of nature.
“On more ambitious proposals, the availability of specific affordances depends on specific circumstances (i.e. initial conditions etc.), but their "bare possibility" is given with the laws of nature (Shaw, 2001;Turvey, 1992, see also Shaw et al., 2019).”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
