One crucial milestone towards an advanced and mature agent technology is the exploration of relationships between nowadays settled theories and architectures. This requires the formal specification of computational aspects by reasonable software-engineering approaches. Complementary, this also requires carefully investigating the practical (and cognitive) relevance of normative presumptionswhich are theoretically ascribed to the "mental" states of agents. Especially for hybrid architectures which reconcile the radical changes of paradigms in Artificial Intelligence over the past decades, a corresponding theoretical foundation has still not been found. The present work is a first attempt to capture such forms of practical rationality. Focusing on layered agents, such as those following the InteRRaP model, our proposal upholds the benefits of the established Belief, Desire, and Intention (BDI) theory. To this end, we describe the layered agent as a holon, i.e., a structured group of traditional BDI agents, and explore how its attitudes emerge from the dynamic interplay of its normative parts.
