Special Issue on Philosophy of Mind

Philosophy of Mind delves into foundational and emerging questions about the nature of the mind, consciousness, and mental phenomena. It invites scholarly papers that explore topics such as the mind-body problem, intentionality, perception, personal identity, mental causation, and the relationship between thought and language. Contributions may also address contemporary debates involving artificial intelligence, cognitive science, and neuroscience, offering philosophical insights into how mental states are understood, represented, and explained. This issue aims to foster critical dialogue on how mind and consciousness fit within a scientific and metaphysical framework.

In this special issue, we intend to invite front-line researchers and authors to submit original research and review articles on exploring Philosophy of Mind. Potential topics include, but are not limited to:

• Artificial intelligence and mind
• Cognitive neuroscience and philosophy
• Consciousness studies
• Dualism
• Embodied cognition
• Functionalism
• Intentionality
• Language and thought
• Mental causation
• Mental representation
• Mind-body problem
• Personal identity
• Phenomenal consciousness
• Physicalism
• Qualia and subjective experience
• Theory of mind
