Dual-character concept

From EverybodyWiki Bios & Wiki




A dual-character concept requires both a set of concrete features and the abstract values that these features serve to realize for determining category membership. Such concepts were first defined by Joshua Knobe, Sandeep Prasada and George E. Newman in 2013.[1]

The prototypical dual-character concept is "artist"[2] It has both a concrete dimension (technical mastery), and an abstract dimension (aesthetic values). Other examples include scientist, Christian, and gangster.[3]

It has been suggested that the concepts of beauty[4][3] and gender[2] are dual-character concepts.
