    Intentional Action in Folk Psychology

    Intentional action is widely held to be an important element in a theory (often called 'folk psychology') whose function lies chiefly in the prediction and explanation of behavior. The author argues that, in fact, people's concept of intentional action has also been shaped in a fundamental way by a concern with specifically *moral* issues. Thus, the concept might be best understood as a kind of multi-purpose tool -- shaped by a concern with prediction and explanation but also by a concern with moral praise and blame

    Intentional Action in Folk Psychology: An Experimental Investigation

    No full text
    Four experiments examined people’s folk-psychological concept of intentional action. The chief question was whether or not evaluative considerations — considerations of good and bad, right and wrong, praise and blame — played any role in that concept. The results indicated that the moral qualities of a behavior strongly influence people’s judgements as to whether or not that behavior should be considered ‘intentional.’ After eliminating a number of alternative explanations, the author concludes that this effect is best explained by the hypothesis that evaluative considerations do play some role in people’s concept of intentional action

    Innovation: Chinese Folk Music Influence in Contemporary Clarinet Repertoire

    Get PDF
    abstract: Several contemporary clarinet works use Chinese folk music elements from different regions in new compositions to entice listener's and performer's appreciation of Chinese culture. However, to date, limited academic research on this topic exists. This research paper introduces six contemporary clarinet works by six Chinese composers: Qigang Chen's Morning Song, Yan Wang's Mu ma zhi ge (The Song of Grazing Horses), An-lun Huang's Capriccio for Clarinet and Strings Op. 41, Bijing Hu's The Sound of Pamir Clarinet Concerto, Mei-Mi Lan's Concerto for Clarinet and String Orchestra with Harp and Percussion, and Yu-Hui Chang's Three Fantasias for Solo Clarinet in B-flat. They are examined from different perspectives, including general structure, style, and rejuvenated folk music use. The focus of this research paper is to investigate the use of Chinese folk music in several works in collaboration with the composers. The author found that although contemporary composers use Chinese folk music differently in their works (i.e., some use melodies, others use harmony, while others use modes), each work celebrates the music and culture of the folk music on which the pieces are based. It is the author's hope to stimulate people's interest in music using Chinese folk music elements, and bring these lesser known works into the common clarinet repertoire.Dissertation/ThesisMorning SongMu ma zhi ge (The Song of Grazing Horses)Capriccio for Clarinet and Strings Op. 41The Sound of Pamir Clarinet Concerto movement IThe Sound of Pamir Clarinet Concerto movement IIThe Sound of Pamir Clarinet Concerto movement IIIConcerto for Clarinet and String Orchestra movement IConcerto for Clarinet and String Orchestra movement IIThree Fantasias for Solo Clarinet in B-flat movement IThree Fantasias for Solo Clarinet in B-flat movement IIThree Fantasias for Solo Clarinet in B-flat movement IIID.M.A. Music 201
