Talk of the neural correlates of, or of the neural mechanisms for, a given psychological capacity was loose science-speak for something like the relation of realization. to think of realizations as being physically inside individuals, and so as Entity-bounded realizations motivate a methodology of constitutive decomposition, a methodology familiar in the physical sciences and which that individual forms a part (in the case of wide realizations). cognitive systems have an entity-bounded rather than a wide realization, from thinking of (individual) mental states or properties as being realized views of realization we have already discussed.
