- Title
The Objection from Cognitive Agreement.

Predelli, Stefano
- Abstract
In this article, the author defends the Unarticulated Constituent Analysis (UCA) from the criticism that it fails to account for the validity of inferences which most of philosophers regard as logically valid. Philosophers Marc Crimmins and John Perry have developed an account of belief attributions which strives to be consistent both with the view of proper names, and with the pre-theoretic intuitions about the truth-values of such sentences. The author presents and develops what he takes to be the central tenets of the UCA. He analyzes the alleged problem stemming from intuitively valid inferences of the kind exemplified above, and explains how it can be solved within the framework sketched in the previous sections.
