 Objects of Belief - Philosophy Dictionary of Arguments
 
Objects of belief, philosophy: it is advocated by some authors that beliefs or thoughts must correspond to objects. Other authors see this as the risk of an objectification or reification. When several speakers refer on their intensional object there is the problem of whether it is the same or not. E.g., Do they have the same wish? See also relation-theory, truthmakers, mentalism, reification.
