摘　　要：通过因果刺激作用确定表征内容的表征理论,无法区分错误与正确表征,形成析取问题(disjunction problem)。为防止析取问题的出现,功能主义者提出以功能来确定表征内容。然而,不确定问题(indeterminacy problem),即功能应如何确定成为新的问题。析取问题和不确定问题的出现使得目的论语义学对表征的解释效力受到质疑。面对质疑,米利肯重述生物功能主义,并以消费者侧理论解决了功能不确定问题。通过米利肯对误表征问题的解决路径,我们可以看到一条独属于米利肯的目的论语义学路线。The representation theory that determines the content of representation through causal stimulation cannot distinguish between false and right representations,named disjunction problem.To prevent the occurrence of the disjunction problem,functionalists propose to determine the content of representation by function.However,the indeterminacy problem of how function should be determined,becomes a new problem.The emergence of the disjunction problem and the indeterminacy problem has questioned the explanatory power of teleosemantics.In response to doubts,Millikan restated biological functionalism and adopted consumer-side theory to solve the function indeterminacy problem.Through Millikan's solution path to the misrepresentation problem,we can see a unique teleosemantic route belonging to Millikan.
