dualism

Dictionary of Philosophy of MindDictionary of Philosophy of Mind
Most generally, the view that reality consists of two disparate parts. In philosophy of mind, the belief that the mental and physical are deeply different in kind: thus the mental is at least not identical with the physical. See occasionalism , doctrine of preestablished harmony , substance dualism , property dualism , Cartesian interactionist dualism , mind-body problem , monism .
&ltDiscussion &gt &ltReferences &gt Chris Eliasmith
The view that: (1) the mental and the material comprise two different classes of substance and; (2) both can have causal effects on the other. See dualism . &ltDiscussion&gt &ltReferences&gt Pete Mandik
