On the pure logic of justified belief

چکیده
Abstract Justified belief is a core concept in epistemology and there has been an increasing interest its logic over the last years. While many logical investigations consider justified as operator, this paper, we propose for which relevant notion treated predicate instead. Although gives rise to possibility of liar-like paradoxes, treatment allows rich highly expressive framework, lives up universal ambitions investigating epistemological concepts. We start with base theory belief, then systematically present putative additional axioms belief. provide overview (in)consistency results when principles are added theory, discuss their philosophical plausibility.

The logic of justified belief, explicit knowledge, and conclusive evidence
We present a complete, decidable logic for reasoning about a notion of completely trustworthy (“conclusive”) evidence and its relations to justifiable (implicit) belief and knowledge, as well as to their explicit justifications. This logic makes use of a number of evidence-related notions such as availability, admissibility, and “goodness” of a piece of evidence, and is based on an innovative m...
متن کاملJustified Belief as Responsible Belief
In what follows, I will be making recommendations for how to understand and distinguish these three concepts. The account I will be developing situates the concept of epistemically rational belief into a well-integrated and philosophically respectable general theory of rationality; it links the concept of warranted belief with the theory of knowledge; and it insists that the concept of justifie...
متن کاملJustified Belief and Rationality
Brandenburger and Dekel have shown that common belief of rationality (CBR) characterizes rationalizable strategies, which are also characterized by a refinement of subjective correlated equilibrium called a posteriori equilibrium. It is possible that players’ beliefs might be incompatible, in the sense that player i can assign probability 1 to an event E to which player j assigns probability 0....
متن کاملJustified Belief and the Topology of Evidence
We introduce a new topological semantics for evidence, evidencebased belief, knowledge and learning. This setting generalizes (and in a sense improves on) the evidence models for belief due to van Benthem and Pacuit, as well as our own previous work on (a topological semantics for) Stalnaker’s doxasticepistemic axioms. We prove completeness, decidability and finite model property for the associ...
متن کاملGettier and Justified True Belief
This report will be divided into three sections. The first will contain a description of the idea of knowledge as justified true belief (JBT) and the Gettier and Gettier-style objections to it. The second will describe a number of attempts to fix the Gettier problem from a variety of angles, and the third will briefly address the broader question of why this subject has proven so seemingly intr...
