- Abstract:
- Highlights: A prototypical conceptualization of mechanisms (PCM) is constructed. PCM provides a simple approach to categorizing diverse phenomena as mechanisms. PCM helps characterize a given mechanism's degree of typicality and its type. PCM helps enumerate the methods of mechanistic investigation. PCM helps identify the limits of mechanistic explanation.
