>About, >Particulars, >Individuals, >Intentionality, >Word meaning, >Cognition, >Perception, >World/thinking.
Sense data: Problem to make foundation for justification of them: the sense data of the empiricists are single objects, but only with respect to facts one can speak of a knowledge.
>Sense data.
