In this paper, I show how a theory’s overall virtue is shaped by its ideological parsimony -- parsimony with respect to the terminology employed in stating the theory. I distinguish between a theory’s truth and its fidelity ('joint-carvingness') and the corresponding epistemic and fidelic virtues.

High‐Fidelity Metaphysics: Ideological Parsimony in Theory Choice. Peter Finocchiaro. Pacific Philosophical Quarterly 102 (4):613-632 (2021) Copy BIBTEX. Abstract. Many metaphysicians utilize the virtue‐driven methodology. According to this methodology, one theory is more worthy of endorsement than another insofar as it is more virtuous.
High-Fidelity Metaphysics. P. Finocchiaro. Published 2019. Philosophy. When metaphysicians debate which among rival theories is most worthy of endorsement, they often utilize the virtue-driven methodology.
High-fidelity experiments would be those one-off experiments where an agent’s behavior provides strong evidence against the possession of a virtue, whereas low-fidelity experiments would be those in which this was not the case.
