Definitions
noun
1
The quality of being intentional.
2
The characteristic of a mental state whereby it is about something, which relates to mental states in an analogous way as meaning relates to a word.
The naturalization of intentionality is an ongoing project in philosophy.
As a preliminary formulation we might say: Intentionality is that property of many mental states and events by which they are directed at or about or of objects and states of affairs in the world.
