Making sense of sense-making: Reflections on enactive and extended mind theories
Evan Thompson,Mog Stapleton +1 more
TL;DR: This article explored the differences between the enactive approach in cognitive science and the extended mind thesis and reviewed the key enactive concepts of autonomy and sense-making, focusing on the following issues: (1) the debate between internalism and externalism about cognitive processes; (2) the relation between cognition and emotion; (3) the status of the body; and (4) the difference between incorporation and mere extension in the body-mind-environment relation.

Journal ArticleDOI
Steps to a Properly Embodied cognitive science
TL;DR: This paper argues that cognitive systems research is now beginning to integrate these aspects of natural cognitive systems into cognitive science proper, not in virtue of traditional ''embodied cognitive science'', which focuses predominantly on the body's gross morphology, but rather in virtues of research into the interoceptive, organismic basis of natural Cognitive systems.

Mog Stapleton,Tom Froese +1 more
TL;DR: This chapter presents the enactive conception of agency, which is deeply and strongly embodied, and argues that this interoceptively grounded agency not only entails affectivity but also forms the necessary basis for subjectivity.

Dave Ward,Mog Stapleton +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, a specific elaboration and partial defence of the claim that cognition is enactive, embodied, embedded, affective and (potentially) extended is presented, based on the enactivist claim that perception and cognition essentially depend upon the cognizer's interactions with their environment.
