Fictionalism is a view in philosophy that posits that statements appearing to be descriptions of the world should not be construed as such, but should instead be understood as cases of "make believe", thus allowing individuals to treat something as literally true (a "useful fiction").

== Concept == Fictionalism consists in at least the following three theses: Claims made within the domain of discourse are taken to be truth-apt; that is, true or false. The domain of discourse is to be interpreted at face value—not reduced to meaning something else. The aim of discourse in any given domain is not truth, but some other virtue(s) (e.g., simplicity, explanatory scope).
