Presentation title slide: 'Mind-body dualism as social signalling' by Matan Mazor, March 2026. Affiliated with All Souls College University of Oxford, Oxford Self-Modelling Group, and Experimental Psychology
Slide titled 'So, what is going on?' showing a diagram of the proposed model. Two inputs Attention Schema and Theory of Mind plus Intuitive Physics — feed into a central box labelled 'A private dualistic belief.' This connects bidirectionally with 'Public expressions of dualism,' which is also influenced by 'Social incentives' from above.
