Abstract

In order to adequately respond to misconceptions involving an object's properties, we must have a context-sensitive method for determining object similarity. Such a method is introduced here. Some of the necessary contextual information is captured by a new notion of object perspective. It is shown how object perspective can be used to account for different responses to a given misconception in different contexts.
