In fact, it is something of a commonplace to point out that logical positivism both established the philosophy of science as a professional specialty (with its own disciplinary identity) and in so doing left an indelible philosophical mark upon it. Indeed, as Suppes points out 2 , although logical positivism was widely rejected as a general epistemology, many continued to see it as adaquate philosophy of science. Logical positivism may have died as a general epistemological or philosophical movement, therefore, but it was merely transformed into philosophy of science. Indeed, although many philosophers of science would argue that this positivist philosophy of science is inadequate, its characteristic orientation (e.g., "the logic of science") still largely dominates the field of philosophy of science. During the heyday of logical positivism (and to a lesser extent even today), philosophy of science was identified (roughly) as what logical empiricists such as Carnap, Hempel, Reichenbach, and Feigl and those sympathetic to them (e.g., Nagel, Braithwaite, Salmon) did in the way of articles and books on the philosophy of science. It was never admitted that there were full-fledged alternative and competing philosophies of 1 How to distinguish these three philosophical positions is difficult to determine but nothing of any importance seems to depend upon it. In the remainder of this paper I will lump all three together under the label "logical positivism", a type of generic term for those several views held in common by all three positions. 2 F.

I attempt to do this in this chapter. First, I clarify the task of traditional epistemology as understood by philosophers and point out how it is different from epistemology as understood by PE researchers: epistemology is

Dans cet article, l'A. resume plusieurs aspects des considerations sociologiques de Piaget, particulierement au sujet de sa theorie de l'echange social et indique brievement leur lien avec des theories courantes en sociologie et en psychosociologie. Selon Piaget, cet echange social solliciterait des principes normatifs de reciprocite et le developpement social se caracteriserait par une elevation dans un equilibre produit de l'action individuelle et de l'interaction sociale

It is an interesting fact that behaviorism is usually referred to in the singular. Behaviorism can be a single, unified conception. The chapter shows that there are many varieties of behaviorism and this chapter refers to these accounts as behaviorisms rather than behaviorism. There are several interesting approaches that involve finding a property or properties all of these share and then finding a property or properties that distinguish behaviorism from all the other paradigms. The chapter states that behaviorism is associated with the learning research that attempts to relate environmental events to responses. The adaptation of the organism to its environment is often a central concern of behaviorists. Thus, evolutionary theory is used to address long-term “ultimate” questions, whereas learning research is used to address more proximate questions. The interrelationships of evolution and learning are thus an important issue.
