Gallagher (2007a) gives a number of arguments against the simulation theory of mindreading. In this paper, I focus on the three most full-fledged of Gallagher’s arguments – the Scheler-Ryle argument, the simple phenomenological argument, and the argument against implicit simulation – and I evaluate the effects these arguments have on a specific version of simulation theory, namely Goldman’s theory of mindreading. After examining the arguments, I conclude that they fail to establish their conclusion: simulation theory, at least in Goldman’s version, has not been refuted by Gallagher.
