The verifiability theory of meaning is introduced by

  • A.Existentialists
  • B.Logical Positivists
  • C.Phenomenologists
  • D.Pragmatists

Answer: B

The verifiability theory of meaning was introduced by the Logical Positivists of the Vienna Circle, who held that a statement is meaningful only if it is analytic or can in principle be verified by experience. Existentialists, phenomenologists and pragmatists have their own concerns and did not make verifiability the criterion of meaning. The answer is Logical Positivists. The criterion was stated in the slogan that the meaning of a statement is its method of verification, and Ayer's Language, Truth and Logic brought it to English readers.
