oai:periodicos.ufrn.br:article-179222019-10-11T19:01:13Z Varieties of mental states and theories of self-knowledge Variedades de estados mentais e a teoria do Autoconhecimento de crenças Barcelos, Robson da Rosa Self-knowledge; Mental states; Beliefs. Autoconhecimento; Estados mentais; Crenças. This article deals with self-knowledge of beliefs. There are several mental states with their own peculiarities. Desires, judgments, feelings, emotions and beliefs. The focus of the article is on the knowledge of one's beliefs. Self-knowledge has characteristics, namely, first-person authority, aprioristic character, cognitive-discriminative capacity, infallibility, omniscience, asymmetry between the first and third person and impossibility of misuse of the pronoun "I" (SILVA FILHO, 2013, p. 33, n.2). In the everyday realm of common sense, there is no doubt about the self-attribution of beliefs, but concepts are not always used correctly, that is, there is an incomplete understanding of one's beliefs. However, does attributing rationality to the agent require knowledge of one's beliefs? According to Coliva (2016), there are dispositional beliefs and as commitment. With respect to the first type of belief, the agent has no epistemic responsibility, with the second yes. Therefore, self-knowledge of doxastic beliefs as commitment requires rationality of the epistemic agent, because there is the epistemic responsibility of the rational agent. O presente artigo versa sobre autoconhecimento de crenças. Há vários estados mentais com suas próprias particularidades. Desejos, julgamentos, sensações, emoções e crenças. O foco do artigo é sobre o conhecimento das próprias crenças. O autoconhecimento possui características, a saber, autoridade de primeira pessoa, caráter apriorístico, capacidade cognitivo-discriminativa, infalibilidade, onisciência, assimetria entre a primeira e terceira pessoa e impossibilidade do uso equivocado do pronome “eu” (SILVA FILHO, 2013, p. 33, n. 2). No âmbito cotidiano do senso comum, não há dúvidas acerca da autoatribuição de crenças, porém nem sempre se utiliza corretamente os conceitos, ou seja, há o entendimento incompleto sobre as próprias crenças. Contudo, será que atribuir racionalidade ao agente requer o conhecimento das próprias crenças? Conforme Coliva (2016), há crenças disposicionais e como compromisso. Com relação ao primeiro tipo de crença, o agente não possui responsabilidade epistêmica, já com a segunda sim. Portanto, autoconhecimento de crenças doxásticas enquanto compromisso, requer racionalidade do agente epistêmico, pois há a responsabilidade epistêmica do agente racional.
