But this is the only link I could find to the actual paper - online.
OSHINS, E. & MCGOVERN, D. (1980) Thoughts about logic about thoughts…: The question “Schizophrenia?” In B. H. Banathy (Ed.), Systems science and science, Proc. 24th Annual Meeting, General Systems Research with the American Association for the Advancement of Science, January.
it's linked on Oshin's website by the format is not as readable. A description here
Oshins and McGoveran suggest that concepts such as “I”, “Virgin Mary”, or “virgin”, behave as “spinors”, a formalism adopted from quantum mechanics. Each “thought spinor” would consist of a real axis containing the distinguished component, e.g., “I”, and an imaginary plane, perpendicular to the real axis, which would contain an infinity of other concepts which taken together would constitute the complementary class, e.g., “not I”. The imaginary components (concepts belonging to the complementary class) would “spin” around the real axis in a certain direction and in so doing would interfere with one another leaving only the real component (the distinguished concept) clearly resolved. Oshins and McGoveran extend this approach to illustrate how member/class relationships are formed. They suggest that schizophrenics have some sort of disability which would correspond to inappropriate “encoding, decoding, or filtering” of the direction of spin, or “phase-ordering”, of the neural information.So this summary does not quite capture the subtlety of what Oshins and McGovern are describing. The issue is that for different sets of information there HAS to be an asymmetric time to indicate equivalence while an equality is based on symmetric time.
That key difference leads to all sorts of errors in logic! For example conflating real numbers with complex numbers.
So the key here is that the asymmetric time reversal is UNOBSERVABLE!
So it's an inherent logical paradox that can ONLY by solved by a change in the set or boundary conditions - the phase of causation.
But the key point is that the original causation is UNOBSERVABLE! It is what Oshins emphasizes as a "negation" but is what math professor Luigi Borzacchini calls the "Negative Judgment Paradox."

is a follow up on the errata.
So....
it says the article was Reprinted (published)... but when I search the book on Worldcat: NOPE -it's NOT in that book!

So it was presented for this group
founded as the Society for General Systems Research, the society adopted its current name in 1988 to reflect its broadening scope
So we have January, 1980, Louisville Kentucky - for a society that has now changed its name!!
It's now called the International Society for the Systems Sciences
The Society was initially conceived in 1954 at the Stanford Center for Advanced Study in the Behavioral Sciences by Ludwig von Bertalanffy, Kenneth Boulding, Ralph Gerard, and Anatol Rapoport. In collaboration with James Grier Miller, it was formally established as an affiliate of the American Association for the Advancement of Science in 1956. Originally founded as the Society for General Systems
Ah ha!!
OK now it makes sense.
Here we go! finally - it is PUBLISHED and listed in the table of contents (pdf)
Systems science and science : proceedings of the Twenty-Fourth Annual North American Meeting of the Society for General Systems Research with the American Association for the Advancement of Science, San Francisco, California, January 7-10, 1980 Author: Bela H Banathy; Society for General Systems Research. North American Meeting; American Association for the Advancement of Science. Publisher: Louisville, KY : Society for General Systems Research, Business Office, Systems Science Institute, University of Louisville, 1980.

So that actual meeting was in San Francisco.
What's very interesting is that "Bela H. Banathy" was a social science linguist for the military - and NATO planner.

So that is Oshins follow up on what happened to his creation of Genuine Stupidity Logic....
STANFORD -- The 10th annual meeting of the western regional chapter of the Alternative Natural Philosophers Association will be held at Stanford's Cordura Hall Feb. 19-21. Among featured speakers will be Patrick Suppes, professor emeritus of philosophy, education, psychology and statistics, and Pierre Noyes, professor of theoretical physics at the Stanford Linear Accelerator Center and a co-founder of both this and the International Alternative Natural Philosophers Association.https://news.stanford.edu/pr/94/940208Arc4457.html
Noyes explained that the main goal of both groups is to examine ideas for new scientific models of the universe that combine what is known about quantum mechanics, molecular biology and consciousness more thoroughly than present models.
Says Edward Oshins died of Heart Attack
The Alternative Natural Philosophy Association “ANPA” was originally founded in the autumn of 1979 by Pierre Noyes , Clive Kilmister, Ted Bastin, Fred Parker-Rhodes and John Amson. The first meeting of ANPA took place in King’s College Cambridge UK the following year 1980.

David McGoveran presents Eddie with the Althernative Natural Philosopher Award for "creative applications of non-distributive lattices & spinor representations in psychology," at the 7th western regional meeting of Alternative Natural Philosophy Association at the Stanford University in 1991.http://dailyimprovisation.blogspot.com/2019/08/emerging-coherence-of-new-view-of.html
Louis Kauffman is still a major contributor to ANPA - and Kauffman collaborated with Oshins
The Libraries that carry the ANPA journal? Stanford, Cambridge, Oxford, Trinity College and Scotland.
