    Shaping your own mind: the self-mindshaping view on metacognition
    Phenomenology and the Cognitive Sciences 20 (1): 139-167. 2020.
    Starting from Proust’s distinction between the self-attributive and self-evaluative views on metacognition, this paper presents a third view: self-mindshaping. Based on the notion of mindshaping as the core of social cognition, the self-mindshaping view contends that mindshaping abilities can be turned on one’s own mind. Against the self-attributive view, metacognition is not a matter of accessing representations to metarepresent them but of giving shape to those representations themselves. Agai…Read more

    Inner speech in action
    Pragmatics and Cognition 23 (2): 238-258. 2016.
    This paper assesses two different approaches to inner speech that can be found in the literature. One of them regards inner speech as a vehicle of conscious thought. The other holds that inner speech is better characterised as an activity derived from social uses of its outer counterpart. In this paper I focus on the explanatory power of each approach to account for the control of attention and behaviour in the context of executive tasks. I will argue that the vehicle view cannot capture some ce…Read more

    Sobre Doxasticismos y Anti-Doxasticismos: Hacia un Mapeo del Problema Tipológico de los Delirios
    with Pablo López Silva and Miguel Nuñez de Prado Gordillo
    Resistances. Journal of the Philosophy of History 3 (6). 2022.
    Uno de los principales problemas de la filosofía de la psicopatología contemporánea consiste en definir qué tipo de estados mentales son aquellos que denominamos delirantes. A esto se le ha denominado el “problema tipológico de los delirios”. El principal objetivo de este artículo es examinar las principales alternativas filosóficas contemporáneas a este problema: el doxasticismo—de acuerdo con el cuál los delirios deben ser caracterizados como creencias—y al anti-doxasticismo—el cuál niega el e…Read more

    Social Cognition: a Normative Approach
    Acta Analytica 35 (1): 75-100. 2020.
    The main aim of this paper is to introduce an approach for understanding social cognition that we call the normative approach to social cognition. Such an approach, which results from a systematization of previous arguments and ideas from authors such as Ryle, Dewey, or Wittgenstein, is an alternative to the classic model and the direct social perception model. In section 2, we evaluate the virtues and flaws of these two models. In section 3, we introduce the normative approach, according to whi…Read more

    An expressivist approach to folk psychological ascriptions
    Philosophical Explorations 27 (1): 86-105. 2023.
    In recent years, some authors have shown a renewed interest in interpretivist theories of folk psychological ascription [Hutto 2013. “Fictionalism About Folk Psychology.” The Monist 96 (4): 582–604.; Mölder 2010.

    Folk psychology without metaphysics: An expressivist approach
    South African Journal of Philosophy 42 (2): 128-143. 2023.
    In recent years, there has been a renewed concern about the dangers of eliminative materialism, as well as several attempts to discuss alternative positions such as new versions of interpretivism or fictionalism. Although expressivism has also emerged as a possibility, the problems with hybrid versions of expressivism in applying it to attitude ascriptions have led to a strong rejection of the proposal. The aim of this article is twofold. First, it argues that there are still theoretical tools a…Read more
