New paper coming out in @TheBJPS: "Validity drifts in psychiatric research". The paper is about measurement validity. I develop the notion of 'validity drift' and apply it to psychiatric research on depression, and fear and anxiety disorders. philpapers.org/rec/MICVDI

We're approaching the end of Year 4 of my 'Foundations of Animal Sentience' project, so it's a good moment for a roundup of what the team has done this year (a thread with open access links). (1/14) 👇🧵
"Consciousness science should accept the premise all animals are conscious." Excellent new paper by @KristinAndrewz “All animals are conscious”: Shifting the null hypothesis in consciousness science - Andrews - Mind & Language - Wiley Online Library onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/mi…

If in the future we don't know whether robots are conscious, should we give them 50% of the moral consideration due to a human being if we think it's 50% likely that they have humanlike consciousness? Today's post expresses doubts about that approach: schwitzsplinters.blogspot.com/2024/01/creden…
Can physics solve the problem(s) of consciousness? In our latest book review for @ScienceMagazine, @chazfirestone and I weigh in. (Spoiler: certainly not without help!) science.org/doi/10.1126/sc…
