En este trabajo examino cómo el Funcionalismo de Máquina de Turing resulta compatible con una forma de dualismo, lo que aleja a la IA clásica o fuerte del materialismo que la inspiró originalmente en el siglo XIX. Para sostener esta tesis, argumento que efectivamente existe una notable cercanía entre el pensamiento cartesiano y dicho funcionalismo, ya que el primero afirma que es concebible/posible separar mente y cuerpo, mientras que el segundo sostiene que no es estrictamente necesario que los estados mentales se realicen en las propiedades físicas de engranajes y máquinas reales. This article deals with how Turing Machine Functionalism turns out to be compatible with a form of Dualism, which involves that strong AI is not close to the original Materialism that inspired it in the nineteenth century. To support this thesis, I argue that there is a compelling coincidence between Descartes' philosophy and this version of Functionalism, since the former holds that it is conceivable/possible to separate mind and body, while the latter holds that it is not strictly necessary that mental states are realized by the physical properties of real cogs and machines.

Contemporary arguments showing the characteristics of a subjectivity conception from a historic-cultural perspectiveare presented, taking in account its conceptual transition from the personality psychology toward the social psychology,and its intersection with the sociology and the philosophy of the subject. The concepts of subjective sense andsubjective configuration as a sense qualification category are developed in the document and constitute the startingpoint for a reflection about the politic subjectivity and the ways to research it, considering the qualitative epistemology,which is based on the constructive interpretative nature of knowledge.

Resumen.

La muestra estuvo conformada por alumnos de una institución de nivel superior, con una media de 19.8 años de edad. Para medir el autoconcepto se utilizó AF5 y el cuestionario de Apoyo Social Percibido de Familia y Amigos . El análisis de los resultados demostró que existe una correlación entre apoyo social percibido y autoconcepto , lo que se confirma al dividir la muestra por género . Palabras claves. Autoconcepto, apoyo social, género.. Evidence on the relation that exists between self concept and the perceived social support is presented. Analysis of groups between the different dimensions from both constructors was made to find out if differences by gender in each construct exist. The sample was composed by college students, with an age average of 19.8 years old. In order to measure self concept it was used AF5 and the questionnaire of Perceived Social Support of Family and Friends . The analysis of the results showed a correlation between perceived social support and self concept , this correlation was confirmed when dividing the sample by gender . Keywords.
