Eye-tracking evidence for the causal-historical theory of reference
Semantics, lying, and additive particularised conversational implicatures
The semantic commitment of liars
Many philosophers agree that the distinction between lying and misleading is detected by reliable intuitions in some prototypical cases and a diagnostic test that accords misleaders, but not liars, a kind of deniability for the disbelieved information they communicate. In this paper I take the soundness of such intuitions for granted and provide a definition of lying that explains the deniability that is detected by the diagnostic test. I argue t…
Lying and What is Said
Intuitions on Semantic Reference
Since Machery et al. Cognition 92, B1-B12 (2004) attacked Kripke’s refutation of classical descriptivism, their experiment has been repeated several times, in its original version or in some revised ones, by theorists with contrasting intents. Some repeated the experiment for confirming its results, others for proving them unreliable. One striking characteristic of those surveys is that they mostly replicated the data collected in Machery et al.’…
Minimal contents, lying, and conventions of language
One recurrent objection against minimalism is that minimal contents have no theoretical role. It has recently been argued that minimal contents serve to draw the distinction between lying and misleading. In Sect. 1 and Sect. 2 I summarise the main argument in support of that claim and contend that it is inconclusive. In Sect. 3 I discuss some cases of lying and some of misleading that raise difficulties for minimalism. In Sect. 4 I make a diagnos…
The Lying Test, Ambiguity, and Determination of Content
For many philosophers, the Lying Test is a reliable instrument for collecting data in semantics. Michaelson argued that the Lying Test does not fall prey to the problem with ambiguity that limits the Cancellability Test of Gricean inspiration. I contend that Michaelson's argument in favor of the Lying Test overlooks two fundamental aspects of what determine the content of an utterance

Assessment of skeletal maturity of the hand‐wrist and knee
Assessment of skeletal maturity of the hand-wrist and knee
This study evaluated the influence of height growth and nutritional status on skeletal maturation of the knee and hand-wrist. Radiographs of 589 subjects (250 girls and 339 boys) from 2 to 15 years were rated according to Greulich-Pyle, TW-20 bone and TW-RUS, RWT knee, and FELS hand-wrist methods and a method combining FELS and RWT indicators. The subjects were referred to the Genoa University Paediatric Department from 1980 to 1987 for short sta…
Fels, Greulich‐Pyle, and Tanner‐Whitehouse bone age assessments in a group of Italian children and adolescents
Assessments of skeletal maturity are usually made from handwrist radiographs, using either the method of Greulich‐Pyle (GP) or Tanner‐Whitehouse (TW). Recently the FELS method has been developed, and it represents a potentially valuable approach to skeletal age assessment. The present study evaluates the accuracy and precision of FELS skeletal age assessments compared with ratings by the GP and TW methods in a group of Italian children and adoles…
