Abstract
This chapter connects exemplar representation with truth and knowledge. It explains the way in which exemplar representation provides the empirical connection of undefeated and irrefutable defensibility. The exemplar can stand in for a predicate yielding exemplar predication exhibiting what the subject is like. The exemplar predicate may be attached to the meaning of words functioning to provide a stochastic connection with how the word is applied and how it is inferentially connected with other words. How exemplars of experience are attached or detached to the use of theoretical words in scientific use is an autonomous choice. Scientific change as well as the delegation of authority is explained by the reflexive exemplar representation of experience onto itself. Evidence and truth lead to empirical knowledge, based on our trustworthiness as we represent the world in terms of exemplarized experience.
