Reference Dependence.
Reference is a response to a letter about Reference 18.
The Patek Philippe Calatrava (reference 5196) is arguably the quintessential dress watch.
They should not consist solely of a reference citation, and they should never include the bibliographic details of a reference.
is not true unless the singular term ‘Kepler’ has reference.
The reference or extension of a term is the set of objects to which it reference.

Footnotes can be used to give additional information, which may include the citation of a reference included in the reference list.
A bearing is the horizontal angle between an object and a reference point—for example, true north is the reference point for true bearings.
At the semantic level, two properties have been proposed as being characteristic of mass nouns: cumulative reference and distributive reference.
., which express the same proposition—must always have the same reference, though two expressions with the same reference can differ in content.
If this conjecture turns out to be true, it would mean that in terms of structure of reference, all paradoxes of reference are either liar-like or Yablo-like.
So we plainly cannot assign to “I” a single content which determines a reference for the expression, since the expression has a different reference in different situations.
A theory of propositions thus does not abandon the theory of reference, as sketched above, but simply says that there is more to a semantic theory than the theory of reference.

Reflection on these platitudes brings to the fore a role that we might call being an object of reference (or perhaps some related modal notion such as possibly being an object of reference or being eligible for reference).
The difficulty follows upon making two reasonable assumptions: that logically equivalent singular terms have the same reference; and that a singular term does not change its reference if a contained singular term is replaced by another with the same reference.
Psychological behaviorism, motivated by experimental interests, claims that to understand the origins of behavior, reference to stimulations (experiences) should be replaced by reference to stimuli (physical events in the environment), and that reference to thoughts or ideas should be eliminated or displaced in favor of reference to responses (overt behavior, motor movement).
But if we leave at least the global versions of these additional claims aside as impossible to reconcile with naturalism, the distinctive feature of social constructionist explanations of representations is that they explain how we came to have those representations not by reference to the facts in the world they represent (as in realism), nor by reference to associations among our sensations (as in some forms of empiricism), nor by reference to innate knowledge or concepts (as in rationalism), nor by reference to the conditions of our thought or experience (as in transcendental arguments) but rather by reference to social and cultural background facts.
