Abstract

Two kinds of approaches to belief contents are contrasted: the davidsonian interpretation theory, and more naturalistic accounts in terms of causal informational links or proper functioning. It is argued that interpretation theory is a relatively shallow one, aiming at »saving phenomena«, not explaining them, and that it should be revised and grounded in naturalistic account.
