Do brain researchers "reify" cognitive modules? Yes, many do, and by definition of reification then philosophers could call the results "things" rather than "processes." But other researchers go to the effort to counter reification, to insist modules are heuristics, many of them existing only at the surface of more basic processes like exploration.
