Probability Logic

no code implementations15 Oct 2019 Niki Pfeifer

This chapter presents probability logic as a rationality framework for human reasoning under uncertainty.

Descriptive

Abductive, Causal, and Counterfactual Conditionals Under Incomplete Probabilistic Knowledge

no code implementations9 Mar 2017 Niki Pfeifer, Leena Tulkki

We study abductive, causal, and non-causal conditionals in indicative and counterfactual formulations using probabilistic truth table tasks under incomplete probabilistic knowledge (N = 80).

counterfactual

Modeling the Ellsberg Paradox by Argument Strength

no code implementations9 Mar 2017 Niki Pfeifer, Hanna Pankka

We present a formal measure of argument strength, which combines the ideas that conclusions of strong arguments are (i) highly probable and (ii) their uncertainty is relatively precise.

Counterfactuals, indicative conditionals, and negation under uncertainty: Are there cross-cultural differences?

no code implementations9 Mar 2017 Niki Pfeifer, Hiroshi Yama

In this paper we study selected argument forms involving counterfactuals and indicative conditionals under uncertainty.

Negation

Transitive reasoning with imprecise probabilities

no code implementations13 Mar 2015 Angelo Gilio, Niki Pfeifer, Giuseppe Sanfilippo

We study probabilistically informative (weak) versions of transitivity, by using suitable definitions of defaults and negated defaults, in the setting of coherence and imprecise probabilities.
