• Philosophy of Psychology
• Philosophy of Mind
• Action Theory
• +۷ مورد دیگر

Annemarie Kalis is an Associate Professor in Theoretical Philosophy at the Department of Philosophy and Religious Studies, Faculty of Humanities, Utrecht University. Her academic career spans over fifteen years with significant contributions to philosophy of psychology, action theory, and philosophy of mind. She maintains an active research profile with numerous publications in leading philosophy and interdisciplinary journals. Dr. Kalis's research primarily focuses on agency, normativity, and reasoning , with particular emphasis on self-control, akrasia (weakness of will), and the philosophical implications of ecological psychology. Her work often employs a neo-Wittgensteinian approach to mind-related phenomena and has increasingly engaged with Gilbert Ryle's ideas on reasoning and perception. She has developed a situated perspective on self-control that challenges traditional mechanistic understandings. Her scholarly output demonstrates a consistent trajectory from early work on akrasia and irrational behavior through to her current situated approach to self-control. The articles reflect a deep engagement with interdisciplinary perspectives, bridging philosophy with psychology, cognitive science, and even applications to mental health conditions like eating disorders. Her work shows increasing attention to ecological and situated approaches to philosophical problems. Dr. Kalis has received significant research funding, including an NWO-VENI grant (2014) for her project on the metaphysics of psychological attitudes and an NWO-VIDI project (2019-2024) titled 'Shaping our action space: a situated perspective on self-control.' These competitive grants from the Netherlands Organization for Scientific Research highlight the significance and innovation of her research program. She has contributed to major debates in philosophy of mind and psychology, including discussions on implicit bias, folk psychology, and the network approach to psychopathology. Her work often challenges reductionist approaches while developing nuanced philosophical frameworks for understanding human cognition and behavior. Dr. Kalis's research demonstrates how philosophical analysis can provide valuable insights for empirical research in psychology and cognitive science.
