Andow, J. (2016) Qualitative tools & experimental philosophy. Philosophical Psychology, 29 (8). pp. 1128-1141. ISSN 1465-394X doi: 10.1080/09515089.2016.1224826

Abstract/Summary

Experimental philosophy brings empirical methods to philosophy. These methods are used to probe how people think about philosophically interesting things such as knowledge, morality, freedom, etc. This paper explores the contribution that qualitative methods have to make in this enterprise. I argue that qualitative methods have the potential to make a much greater contribution than they have so far. Along the way, I acknowledge a few types of resistance that proponents of qualitative methods in experimental philosophy might encounter, and provide reasons to think they are ill-founded.
