Abstract

This paper addresses the dynamics of mental states in relation to the dynamics of the interaction with the external world. It contributes a formalised temporal-interactivist approach to these dynamics based on temporal traces for semantics and on a temporal trace language as an expressive means to formulate dynamic properties. The approach provides a foundation for the dynamic and interactivist perspective on cognitive phenomena.
