| Intersubjectivity: intersubjectivity is the mutual recognition of an inner life by conscious subjects. The precondition is the conscious recognition of one's own inner life by a subject, as well as the assumption that other subjects share the main features of the inner constitution which the subject identifies in itself. These include language, sensation of pain, memory capability, the drive for self-preservation, and certain interests. Intersubjectivity is used by some authors as a substitute for an objectivity, which is regarded as unachievable._____________Annotation: The above characterizations of concepts are neither definitions nor exhausting presentations of problems related to them.

Rudolf Carnap on Intersubjectivity - Dictionary of Arguments
VI 90 Objectivity/Carnap: Independence from the judging subject; > Inter-subjectivity. Intersubjectivity/Carnap: essential quality of reality. Problem: how should science come to intersubjectivity when all its objects are constituted by an individual subject? Solution: although the material of the individual streams of experience is different, even incomparable, VI 91 certain structural characteristics are the same for all streams of experience. VI 180 Physical world/Carnap: to be distinguished from the world of perception. Mere quadruples of numbers to which state variables are ascribed. VI 181 Only it is accessible to intersubjectivity, not the world of perception. >Subjectivity, >Perception, >Sensory impressions, >Objectivity. VI 192 Intersubjectivity/other minds/ attribution/Carnap: through the statements of the other I not only learn the facts, but also that he is known to the other. VI 198f Intersubjectivity is incomplete, and the gaps are not consistently in the same places. VI 199 Def Intersubjective object/Carnap: the abstraction classes of intersubjective assignment._____________Explanation of symbols: Roman numerals indicate the source, arabic numerals indicate the page number.
