MAKING CONNECTIONS BETWEEN THE SAMPLE SPACE AND THE PROBABILITY OF AN EVENTProdromou, Theodosia
This paper explores a heuristic—representativeness—according to which the subjective probability of an event, or a sample, is determined by the degree to which it: (i) is similar in essential characteristics to its parent population; and (ii) reflects the salient features of the process by wh...

There are 6 different sample points in that sample space.Event: one or more outcomes of an experimentExample Events: An event can be just one outcome: Getting a Tail when tossing a coin Rolling a "5" An event can include more than one outcome: Choosing a "King" from a deck of cards...

The complement of an event is the event not occurring. The probability that Event A will not occur is denoted by P(A'). The probability that Events A and B both occur is the probability of the intersection of A and B. The probability of the intersection of Events A and B is denoted...
Indeed, even for large n, the relative frequency of an event can differ from its probability. In the deterministic case we say that xn tends to x* when we mean that the difference in norm between xn and xn − 1 becomes smaller and smaller as n increases. Consider the probabilistic ...
Step 3: Calculate the probability of each event The probability of each event can be calculated by dividing the number of favorable outcomes (the ones you're looking for) by the total number of outcomes in the sample space. P(A) is the probability of rolling an even number. There are th...
An empirical probability, also called an experimental probability, is closely related to the relative frequency of an event. Empirical probability uses the number of occurrences of a given outcome within a sample set as a basis fordetermining the probabilityof that outcome occurring again. The number...
