Table of Differences
View | Access | Basis | Responsibility |
Internalism | A person always has access to or can be aware of why (the reasons) he believes in something | One’s internal (mental) states are important justifiers of a belief | An internal sense of conformity to responsibility and duty towards truth is the justification for one’s belief |
Externalism | It is not the case that a person always has access to or can be aware of the reasons or justifications for his belief | There are things other than mental states that act as justifiers of belief | Belief is justified, not by any sense of duty, but by the strength of evidential support and objectivity. |
