The representational framework in perceptual theory.
The representational stance in perceptual theory is described and its proper domain of application is examined. A decision rule for invoking representation is proposed but, although the rule is principled, its implementation is problematic. Despite the widespread appeal of the representational stance, detailed working out of the position within perceptual theory is still needed.
