  • Whatever the complete analysis of sentences like (5) turns out to be, one thing seems reasonably clear: the truth-conditions of (5) put no constraints whatsoever on how things physically are with my hand.

    Pain Aydede, Murat 2009

  • Any account, including the Proper Name Theory, according to which the semantic function of word-tokens inside quotation marks is just to refer to word-types (or some other type of linguistic entity) fails to assign correct truth-conditions to (12).

    Quotation Cappelen, Herman 2009

  • Whether or not I come to believe what it tells me is a matter of factors that ought not to be read into the analysis of what the truth-conditions of (5) are.

    Disjunction Jennings, Ray 2008

  • It is an attempted reconstruction of how our judgments of justifiedness are arrived at, not as correctness conditions or truth-conditions for statements of justifiedness.

    Reliabilism Goldman, Alvin 2008
