Talk of conditionals rather than hypotheticals, and of conditional probabilities rather than degrees of confirmation. Also, write 'A → B' for 'If A, then B', 'P(A, B)' for 'The conditional probability of A on (
Forms of Thought: Conditionals and conditional probability Assigning truth-conditions to conditional statements leads to problems in assigning probabilities to those statements (Lewis, 1976). This note presents and... EJ Lowe 被引量: 10发表: 2013年 Indicative Conditionals and Conditional Probability It...
Why these premises make this form of argument valid can be seen by observing the mathematical relationship between a conditional probability and its contrapositive conditional probability. Having a valid argument form for conditional probabilities that is like Modus Tollens may be useful when arguing for...
This collection of essays is on the relation between probabilities, especially conditional probabilities, and conditionals. It provides negative results which sharply limit the ways conditionals can be related to conditional probabilities. There are also positive ideas and results which will open up areas...

The conditional-probability pattern reflects an interpretation of conditionals as expressing a conditional probability. The conjunctive pattern suggests that some people treat conditionals as conjunctions, in line with a prediction of the mental-model theory. Experiments 1 and 2 rule out two alternative ...
Probability and Conditionals The aim of the paper is to draw a connection between a semantical theory of conditional statements and the theory of conditional probability. First, the probability calculus is interpreted as a semantics for truth functional logic. Absol... RC Stalnaker - 《Philosophy ...
the latter showed that participants' endorsement of the conclusion of the Modus Ponens inferences was better predicted by their judgments of the strength of the explanatory connection between the antecedent and consequent of the major premise of the argument than the corresponding conditional probability....
PROBABILITY AND CONDITIONALS: BELIEF REVISION AND RATIONAL DECISION For in more considered moments Edgington seems to want to say that we have conditional beliefs (as opposed to belief in conditionals), so that it's not that "B given A" is somehow the object of our belief, but rather that ...
