So what do readers think of philosophy of mind?

It turns out that, mostly, they like it!  With over 1400 votes (pretty good for the middle of summer, at least here in the Northern Hemisphere), 34% thought philosophy of mind "a central, foundational part of the discipline," and another 26% described it as "a major area of research."  27% more deemed it "useful when integrated with psychology and the cognitive sciences":  so that's 87% with the most favorable options.  4% described it as a "minor area of research," and only 8% chose the most dismissive option.
