This paper discusses Erhan Demicioglu’s approach to McGinn’s mysterianism. Demircioglu argues that the reasons why McGinn considers his cognitive closure idea to be true with respect to the solution of the mind-brain problem are not compatible with his claim about the existence of a naturalist solution to the mind-brain problem. However, I consider such a criticism to be the result of missing some important details in McGinn’s thesis on cognitive closure. In this study by analysing McGinn’s mysterianism I show that no contradiction exists between the reasons why McGinn presented his cognitive closure thesis and the existence of a naturalist solution to the mind-body problem.

Computatıonal aspects of discourse annotation
Aktaş, Berfin; Bozşahin, Hüseyin Cem; Department of Cognitive Sciences (2008)
In this thesis, we aim to analyze the computational aspects of discourse annotation. Discourse is not only a concatenation of sentences; in fact the totality of discourse is more than the sum total of the sentences that constitute it. The property that differentiates discourse from a set of arbitrary sentences is defined as coherence. Coherence is established by the relations between the parts of discourse. We have a lexicalized approach to discourse, therefore in this study, discourse relations are conside...
A philosophical analysis of computational modeling in cognitive science
Ürgen, Burcu Ayşen; Bağçe, Samet; Department of Cognitive Sciences (2007)
This study analyses the methodology of computational cognitive modeling as one of the ways of conducting research in cognitive science. The aim of the study is to provide an understanding of the place of computational cognitive models in understanding human cognition. Considering the vast number of computational cognitive models which have been just given to account for some cognitive phenomenon by solely simulating some experimental study and fitting to empirical data, a practice-oriented approach is adopt...
A bibliometric analysis of women's employment
ÇAKIR, Sinem; Derin Güre, Pınar; Department of Social Policy (2022-12)
This thesis aims to analyze how contributions have been made to the literature on women's employment with a quantitative bibliometric approach. Main articles, authors, institutes, countries, journals, and most cited authors' genders of women's employment literature were determined, and how they differed in the context of developed and developing countries was discussed. As far as we know, this kind of quantitative literature review on women's employment has not been done before, and the literature differenc...
A critical evaluation of Kripke's interpretation of Wittgenstein
Karaağaç, Hasan; Sayan, Erdinç; Department of Philosophy (2004)
This thesis analyzes the relation between Kripke's rule-sceptic argument and Wittgenstein's paradox. Besides, Kripke's claim that the conclusion of Wittgenstein's private language argument is stated in PI 202 will be discussed. The thesis will also evaluate the consistency of Kripke's rule-sceptic argument independently of Wittgenstein's views.
A Comparative Study on the Hyperelastic Constitutive Models for Rubber
Dal, Hüsnü (2018-10-25)
This paper presents a novel approach for comparison of constitutive models forrubber. Model parameters are identified by simultaneous fitting of a given data of a set ofhomogeneous experiments (uniaxial tension, equibiaxial tension, and pure shear, Figure 1) bymultiobjective optimization. Using these parameters, fitting error can be calculated. In thisstudy, however, quality of fit parameter, which represents the amount of error normalized bythe data, is calculated for unbiased comparison of models. 40 diff...
