Propositional Attitude Ascriptions

Propositional Attitude Ascriptions is a semantic construct in analytic philosophy that designates the linguistic practice of attributing intentional mental states—such as belief, desire, or knowledge—to individuals through sentential formulations that specify both the subject and the propositional content believed, desired, or known, distinguishing it from non-attitudinal or non-propositional forms of psychological ascription.
