|Question=What is '''epistemic agent'''? How should it be ''defined''?
|Description=The notion of epistemic agent plays a central role in scientonomy. In the scientonomic context it was first used in [[Barseghyan (2018)|Barseghyan's ''Redrafting the Ontology of Scientific Change'']] where the term was not defined.[[CiteRef::Patton (2019)|pp. 64-65]] [[CiteRef::Barseghyan (2018)]] Since the term stands in an important relationship with the notions of epistemic element and epistemic stance, it is important to provide the term with a proper scientonomic definition.
