Personal probabilities of probabilities [PDF]
Theory and Decision, 1975 By definition, the subjective probability distribution of a random event is revealed by the (‘rational’) subject's choice between bets — a view expressed by F. Ramsey, B. De Finetti, L. J. Savage and traceable to E. Borel and, it can be argued, to T. Bayes.

Generalized probability–probability plots [PDF]
Journal of Statistical Planning and Inference, 2004 We introduce generalized Probability-Probability (P-P) plots in order to study the one-sample goodness-of-fit problem and the two-sample problem, for real valued data.These plots, that are constructed by indexing with the class of closed intervals, globally preserve the properties of classical P-P plots and are distribution-free under the null ...

Quantum Probabilities as Behavioral Probabilities [PDF]
Entropy, 2017 We demonstrate that behavioral probabilities of human decision makers share many common features with quantum probabilities. This does not imply that humans are some quantum objects, but just shows that the mathematics of quantum theory is applicable to the description of human decision making. The applicability of quantum rules for describing decision

Quantum probabilities as Bayesian probabilities [PDF]
Physical Review A, 2002 In the Bayesian approach to probability theory, probability quantifies a degree of belief for a single trial, without any a priori connection to limiting frequencies. In this paper we show that, despite being prescribed by a fundamental law, probabilities for individual quantum systems can be understood within the Bayesian approach.

Lexicographic probability, conditional probability, and nonstandard probability [PDF]
Games and Economic Behavior, 2010 The relationship between Popper spaces (conditional probability spaces that satisfy some regularity conditions), lexicographic probability systems (LPS's), and nonstandard probability spaces (NPS's) is considered. If countable additivity is assumed, Popper spaces and a subclass of LPS's are equivalent; without the assumption of countable additivity ...

Probability and Interpolation [PDF]
Transactions of the American Mathematical Society, 1981 An m × n m \times n matrix E E with n n ones and ( m − 1 ) n (m - 1)n zeros, which satisfies the Pólya condition, may be regular and singular for Birkhoff interpolation. We prove that for random distributed ones,

The probability of causation1 [PDF]
Law, Probability and Risk, 2017 Abstract Many legal cases require decisions about causality, responsibility or blame, and these may be based on statistical data. However, causal inferences from such data are beset by subtle conceptual and practical difficulties, and in general it is, at best, possible to identify the ‘probability of causation’ as lying between certain ...

SSRN Electronic Journal, 2021 Abstract In many economic decisions, people estimate probabilities, such as the likelihood that a risk materializes or that a job applicant will be a productive employee, by retrieving experiences from memory. We model this process based on two established regularities of selective recall: similarity and interference.

Probability thermodynamics and probability quantum field
Journal of Mathematical Physics, 2023 We introduce probability thermodynamics and probability quantum fields. By probability we mean that there is an unknown operator, physical or nonphysical, whose eigenvalues obey a certain statistical distribution. Eigenvalue spectra define spectral functions.
