ABSTRACT

Introspection is the means by which a person knows about her present mental states. Philosophers have not converged on a single account of introspection. For example, some think of introspection as importantly like perception; others do not. Evidence is whatever supports or justifies hypotheses. Philosophers have not converged on a single account of evidence either. For example, some think of perceptual experiences as comprising evidence; others do not. The chapter explores the connections between introspection and evidence.
