Abstract

Heintz & Scott-Phillips provide a useful synthesis for constructing a bridge between work by both cognitive scientists and evolutionary biologists studying the diversity of human communication. Here, we aim to strengthen their bridge from the side of evolutionary biology, to argue that we can best understand ostensive communication as a scaffold for more complex forms of intentional expressions.

摘要

海因茨和斯科特-菲利普斯为连接认知科学家和研究人类交流多样性的进化生物学家的工作提供了一个有用的综合方法。在这里，我们旨在从进化生物学的角度加强他们的桥梁，认为我们可以将示意交际最好理解为更复杂形式的意向表达的支架。
