Our framework integrates three methods to finally let us test Laudan’s hypothetical imperatives at scale, moving beyond the limits of single case studies. We demonstrate it by analyzing how reviewers use "pseudoscience" to enforce practical norms. This is how we can make digital work […]

This paper argues for a synthesis of these traditions. We propose a framework grounded in normative naturalism for evaluating scientific norms based on their role in solving local, context-specific problems. This framework is advanced through three complementary digital methods: tracking norm effectiveness, computational modeling research systems, and analyzing scientific discourse. To demonstrate our approach, we conduct a detailed analysis of how reviewers use the term “pseudoscience” in a large corpus of open peer review reports. This case study shows how combining quantitative methods with close reading can uncover the operative, and often implicit, norms that guide scientific communities. Our approach suggests that digital philosophy of science, by systematically examining scientific communication, can open new possibilities for empirically-informed normative guidance in practice. Keywords Digital philosophy of science - Normative naturalism - Peer review - Scientific communication - Research norms - Scientific practice - Digital humanities - Scientific methodology - Research evaluation - Textual analysis - Scientific standards - Qualitative analysis
A brilliant new paper led by Przemysław Nowakowski is out in Synthese, and I was happy to contribute.
We tackle a central problem for philosophers of science: how can digital, text-driven methods do more than just describe practice? Our answer is to build a truly normative digital philosophy. 1/2

1/2: NEW PAPER ALERT! I bridge Mark Bickhard’s interactivism with truth debates. Key insight: Truth ≠ evolutionary byproduct. It’s the outcome of problem-solving under biological constraints. A tribute to Bickhard’s overlooked work.
