GOMEZ TABARES, Anyerson Stiths; OSPINA, José Fernando  e  MICOLTA HENAO, Andrés Felipe. Towards a naturalized explanation of the philosophical problem of the other minds. Rev. Guillermo Ockham [online]. 2019, vol.17, n.2, pp.61-70.  Epub 04-Fev-2021. ISSN 1794-192X.  https://doi.org/10.21500/22563202.4269.

In this paper we will try to show that the treatment of some traditional problems of the philosophy of the mind, in the case of this work, the problem of the other minds, can be articulated with a naturalistic vision of the world, and in coherence with it, the empirical study of cognitive sciences, thus, the meta-theoretical reflection of the supporting philosophy of its metaphysical, epistemological and logical principles from the scaffolding of the empirical evidence.

We will try to use a naturalistic methodology based on the revision of scientific theories with empirical evidence in the field of cognitive neuroscience, ethology and cognitive psychology about the philosophical problem of other minds and how the scientific construct of the theory of mind (ToM) can provide a solution or reformulation. This means, undoubtedly, a re-evaluation of the philosophical problem, its arguments and attempts of solution. The result could be a fruitful naturalization and a teleological vision of the cognitive-social evolution of the human being and other species.
