The justification of Bayes' rule by cognitive rationality principles is undertaken by extending the propositional axiom systems usually proposed in two contexts of belief change: revising and updating. Probabilistic belief change axioms are introduced, either by direct transcription of the set-theoretic ones, or in a stronger way nevertheless in the spirit of the underlying propositional princi...

The two perspectives are combined by an application of the theory of product logics, delivering sound and complete systems in which the interaction of argumen...
