- W21085110 abstract "P. A. Lamal has declined to heed our (siren) call to cognition (Deitz & Arrington, 1984), thinking that it holds out more danger than promise for practitioners of the science of behavior (Lamal, 1986). We feel that his reluctance based on a number of confusions and doubtful claims, some of which are of sufficient interest to merit comment. Both Lamal and Edward K. Morris, the latter in his altogether admirable set of constructive reflections on our paper (Morris, 1986), are concerned about the fact that may have more than one home. In addition to their use in ordinary discourse?what we claim to be their original and rightful home?they are used in quite different ways in many theories. Lamal urges against us that if Wittgenstein correct in seeing the verbal community as the final authority on correct use, then the smaller, specialized community of radical behaviorists may employ words as it pleases and under no obligation to employ them, as we have demanded, in the way they are used in ordinary discourse. In a sense he correct in this, but he has not thought through the implications of it. Radical behaviorists may indeed invent a new use for words like intend, want, and think?so long as they realize that in doing so they are no longer using them to talk about or refer to what we in everyday life mean by intending, wanting, and thinking. A new use, certainly a radically new use, entails a new subject matter, for, as we have argued before, the criteria of application for terms constitute the criteria of identity of their referents (Deitz & Arrington, 1983). Or, as Wittgenstein put it, grammar tells us what kind of object anything is (Wittgenstein, 1953, p. 116). Wittgenstein constantly reminds us that psychological are just everyday concepts (Wittgenstein, 1980, p. 12) and that a word like think an everyday word (p. 37). Where do we get the concept 'thinking' from, which we now want to consider here? From everyday language (p. 5). He also stresses that our express our interests and that they mesh with the rest of our lives (Wittgenstein, 1967, pp. 68-69; 1974, p. 65). Most of us early on become interested in such things as pain, wanting, thinking, and behaving, precisely as these are identified by means of our everyday concepts. Moreover, it our ignorance about such matters as thinking and behaving, and the difficulty we have in understanding them, that lead many people to pursue the science of psychology. In other words, it in terms of our ordinary that we define our interests and problems. To eliminate these or replace them with others would be to pass by those interests and problems. Psychologists will not provide the explanations we want or overcome the ignorance we deplore by changing the subject. It true that many psychologists avoid ordinary and replace them with a new language. Wittgenstein suggests that such maneuvers, far from reflecting proper scientific objectives and methods, simply rest upon conceptual confusion. He" @default.
