Concept information

Preferred term

nonconceptual content  

Definition(s)

  • The issue of nonconceptual content revolves around two related questions. First, are there mental or cognitive states that represent some entity, without the subject of those states having to possess and/or employ any concepts of that entity? Second, what is the nature of the contents that such cognitive states possess? Answering either question is extremely difficult.
