Noûs, EarlyView.Abstract In this paper, we explore the tension between the KK thesis and an attractive principle concerning the assertability of conditionals. We explore the prospects for defending the KK thesis against the problems posed, and conclude that they are dim.

In Defense of Comparability: Reply to Carlson and Risberg
Noûs, EarlyView.ABSTRACT In “The Case for Comparability,” we argue that every comparative expression “F$F$” obeys Comparability: if two things are at least as F$F$ as themselves, then one of them must be at least as F$F$ as the other. One of our arguments appeals to the apparent validity of the Strong Monotonicity schema: x$x$ is F$F$; y$y$ is not F$F$; so, x$x$ is ...

A Contextual Accuracy Dominance Argument for Probabilism
Philosophy and Phenomenological Research, EarlyView.ABSTRACT A central motivation for Probabilism—the principle of rationality that requires one to have credences that satisfy the axioms of probability—is the accuracy dominance argument: one should not have accuracy dominated credences, and one avoids accuracy dominance just in case one satisfies Probabilism.
