Parsimony and the triple-system model of concepts
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 29 June 2010
Abstract
Machery's dismissive position on parsimony requires that we examine especially carefully the data he provides as evidence for his complex triple-system account. We use the prototype-exemplar debate as an example of empirical findings which may not, in fact, support a multiple-systems account. We discuss the importance of considering complexity in scientific theory.
