Scientists' choices between realism and instrumentalism (or other types of anti-realism) are interpreted in this paper with the help of two different conceptual tools: a deflationary semantics grounded in the inferentialist approach to linguistic practices developed by some authors (e.g., Sellars,...

If, however, they embrace scientific antirealism, they cannot use a scientific theory to explain ...

Realism and antirealism are two sides of a philosophical debate behind the whole basis of accepted scientific truth. These contrasting views dictate how the observations generated by science are applied to the world. Whilst applicable to science, the wider debate involves many areas, including religio...
It is argued that practical realism is opposed to standard scientific realism, on the one hand, and antirealism, on the other. Standard scientific realism is challengeable due to its abstract character, as being isolated from practice. It is based on a metaphysical-ontological presupposition which...
Scientific anti-realismIdealizationInstrumentalismIn this study I argue that Husserl's phenomenology is compatible with a realistic interpretation of scientific theories. That said, I distinguish between the realistic interpretation of scientific theories and scientific realism. The former holds that the ...

Participants in the virtual mock-crime condition rated the virtual environment at an average of 9.1 out of 10 on a perceived realism measure. An earlier study50, compared the behaviours of six experienced ex-burglars, and six non-offender students as they navigated and stole items from a real...
24, where the effects of white noise (or, equivalently, of a qubit-depolarizing channel) on quantum memory, temporal steerability25,26, and nonmacrorealism were revealed by applying a full quantum process tomography. The use of measures or universal witnesses of these quantum correlations, ...
