  • To the behaviourist about clocks, a clock is simply something with such time-indicating exterior parts
  • The inner workings of any clock are entirely irrelevant to its status as a clock, provided they produce (or at least don't interfere with) the movement of the hands. The anti-behaviourist, by contrast, thinks of a clock as an inner mechanism which, in favourable circumstances, can cause some exterior parts to move in a way which reliably indicates the time
    • Minjie Kim
       
      basically, a behaviorist thinks only of the outside, what they are able to observe.
