 For some, taking seriously the idea that a group has a mind of its own involves more than an empiricist commitment to the explanation of phenomena. That is, a group mind is not merely a convenient posit adopted from within the third person perspective of the intentional stance for the purposes of explanation and prediction (Dennett 1987). A mind has a point of view, and if sufficiently sophisticated, is a subject of commitment and obligation. In developing ideas of Searle and Tuomela in a new direction, Schmid (2014) argues that such a group mind would require a distinctive form of plural self-awareness on the part of each of the members of the group. He suggests that such groups do exist, and explores ways in which plural self-awareness is and is not analogous to the self-awareness each of us as individuals exhibit.
