Contemporary Epistemology, 2019
This paper defends a principle I call Equal Treatment, according to which the rationality of a belief is determined in precisely the same way as the rationality of any other state.

AbstractOur interest in understanding belief stems partly from our being creatures who think. However, the term ‘belief’ is used to refer to many states: from the fully conscious rational state that partly constitutes knowledge to the fanciful states of alarm clocks. Which of the many ‘belief’ states must a theory of belief be answerable to?

Why Responsible Belief Is Permissible Belief
Analytic Philosophy, 2014It is widely thought that we are at least sometimes responsible for our doxastic attitudes. We can be praised, blamed, or neutrally appraised for our beliefs, disbeliefs, and withholdings. However, many epistemologists have also pointed out that, despite the fact that we are responsible both for certain actions and for certain beliefs, there are ...

Belief Fusion: Aggregating Pedigreed Belief States
Journal of Logic, Language and Information, 2001The problem of multi-agent belief aggregation is considered. A new operation, called belief fusion, for combining the beliefs of agents informed by some set of sources which are ordered by reliability is introduced. An (anonymous) belief state is defined as a total pre-order over the set of possible worlds (interpretations) \(\mathcal W\).

Synthese, 1981
AbstractA puzzle about indexical or self‐locating belief is discussed. It is argued that with the help of the apparatus of propositional concepts and diagonal propositions developed in ch. 4 (’Assertion’) and 6 (Semantics for belief’), the phenomena can be reconciled with the doctrine of propositions—the thesis that the objects of belief are impersonal

At the time we first may be able to distinguish a comprehensive Greek worldview, we find a community where life in all aspects was preferred to death. Although the existence as a dead, disembodied soul could vary between an unconscious state in the land of the dead, some better fate due to the participation in certain religious mysteries, and being ...

Belief Systems: Ascribing Belief
1989In this decade, it has been realised that belief Systems are an important part of any artificial intelligence (AI) System that interacts with individuals. For correct, and maximal behaviour it is necessary to account for the beliefs of other individuals that differ from the system's.

Beliefs and Belief Relationships
1990Computer comprehension of editorial arguments in OpEd is based on the capability of modeling beliefs. Beliefs can be set apart from other conceptual structures needed to understand narrative text. As pointed out by Abelson (1973, 1979), beliefs are not goals, plans, events, or states, but rather predications about these structures and their ...

Journal of Health Psychology, 2012
Psychology, including health psychology, frequently invokes the concept of belief but almost never defines it. Drawing upon scholarship associated with the ‘affective turn’, this article argues that belief might usefully be understood as a structure of socialized feeling, contingently allied to discursive practices and positions.
