Abstract

Communication research cannot be done in the absence of some epistemological system whose primitive propositions are relevant to basic factors of the mind. The metalanguage of such a system entails the comprehension of systems-of-thought, systems-of-explanation, explanation, and understanding as being explicative of the communicative process. Such comprehension requires knowledge of the ontological disposition of ideas and their meanings. The present paper provides an explanation sketch of such an epistemological system and refers to some implied consequences on which research has already been completed. A critique is presented on the nature of ideas and meaning.
