功能主義 (心靈哲學)
功能主義,也稱機能主義是心靈哲學中的觀點之一,認為心靈狀態(信念、欲望、痛苦等)都僅僅基於它們的功能角色。功能角色是,一個心靈狀態與其他心靈狀態(其他人的心靈)之間的關係,感官輸入和行為輸出。[1] 功能主義是同一理論和行為主義的發展演變。
多重實現
多重實現是功能主義的重要部分。根據標準的功能主義理論,心靈狀態回應功能角色。它們像閥門一樣,一個閥門可以由塑料或鐵等等構成,只要它們能當作閥門來用。類似地,功能主義者認為,心靈狀態也可以被解釋,而不需要什麼實現它們的物理的中介(例如大腦),人們只需要考慮更高層面的功能即可。
但是,也有功能主義理論與同一理論相組合,否定了多重現實。例如Functional Specification Theories (FSTs) (Levin, § 3.4)。最著名的支持這個觀點的人是大衛·劉易斯[2]和戴維·阿姆斯特朗.[3] 根據FSTs,心靈狀態是功能角色的特殊「實現者」,而不是功能角色本身。
