A Definition of Conditional Probability with Non-Stochastic Information [PDF]
Entropy, 2018 The current definition of a conditional probability enables one to update probabilities only on the basis of stochastic information. This paper provides a definition for conditional probability with non-stochastic information.

On Quantum Conditional Probability [PDF]
Theoria, 2013 We argue that quantum theory does not allow for a generalization of the notion of classical conditional probability by showing that the probability defined by the Lüders rule, standardly interpreted in the literature as the quantum-mechanical ...

Conditional Probability Modulates Visual Search Efficiency [PDF]
Frontiers in Human Neuroscience, 2013 We investigated the effects of probability on visual search. Previous work has shown that people can utilize spatial and sequential probability information to improve target detection.

Multiple perspectives on the concept of conditional probability [PDF]
Avances de Investigación en Educación Matemática, 2012 Conditional probability is a key to the subjectivist theory of probability; however, it plays a subsidiary role in the usual conception of probability where its counterpart, namely independence is of basic importance.

Tactile temporal predictions: The influence of conditional probability [PDF]
i-PerceptionPredicting the timing of incoming information allows brain to optimize information processing in dynamic environments. However, the effects of temporal predictions on tactile perception are not well established.

Revisiting the conditional construal of conditional probability [PDF]
Logic and Logical Philosophy, 2022 We show how to extend any finite probability space into another finite one which satisfies the conditional construal of conditional probability for the original propositions, given some maximal allowed degree of nesting of the conditional.

Conditionals and conditional probability
Journal of Experimental Psychology: Learning, Memory, and Cognition, 2003 The authors report 3 experiments in which participants were invited to judge the probability of statements of the form if p then q given frequency information about the cases pq, p-q, -pq, and -p-q (where - not).

The probability of conditionals: A review [PDF]
Psychonomic Bulletin & Review, 2021 A major hypothesis about conditionals is the Equation in which the probability of a conditional equals the corresponding conditional probability: p(if A then C) = p(C|A). Probabilistic theories often treat it as axiomatic, whereas it follows from the meanings of conditionals in the theory of mental models. In this theory, intuitive models (system 1) do

Conditional probability of derangements and fixed points [PDF]
Transactions on Combinatorics, 2023 The probability that a random permutation in $S_n$ is a derangement is well known to be $\displaystyle\sum\limits_{j=0}^n (-1)^j \frac{1}{j!}$. In this paper, we consider the conditional probability that the $(k+1)^{st}$ point is fixed, given there are ...
