Essay from the year 2017 in the subject Philosophy - Miscellaneous, grade: B+, University of Northampton, language: English, abstract: Functionalists agree that when an inverted spectrum occurs and the normal function of the sensory sense is not restored, then their main prediction can be refuted. Functionalists contend that inverted spectrum can happen, but the behavioral accommodation helps to revert it to the normal function. The use of the expression "he sees red where other..." works under the normal expression that the meaning that the functionalists give to red is the same to that of others and that there is an agreement on the naming of the colors. Thus, in any instance where the person sees red when all other people would say that they saw green, we would say that that particular person is different from us. The functionalists will look for the cause of the difference in the judgment of the individual with the inverted qualia. If a reason for the difference is found, there will be a greater level of inclination towards saying that the person saw red where others saw green.
