The dialectics of accuracy arguments for probabilism

چکیده
Scoring rules measure the deviation between a credence assignment and reality. Probabilism holds that only those assignments satisfy axioms of probability are rationally admissible. Accuracy-based arguments for probabilism observe given certain conditions on scoring rule, score any non-probability is dominated by probability. The in we will consider include propriety: claim expected accuracy p not beaten other c lights if I argue think through how non-probabilist can respond to pragmatic probabilism, expect accept condition stronger than propriety same reasons probabilist gives propriety, but this incompatible with needs run argument. This makes it unlikely probabilist’s argument be compelling.

Arguments for–or against–Probabilism?
Four important arguments for probabilism—the Dutch Book, representation theorem, calibration, and gradational accuracy arguments—have a strikingly similar structure. Each begins with a mathematical theorem, a conditional with an existentially quantified consequent, of the general form: if your credences are not probabilities, then there is a way in which your rationality is impugned. Each argum...
متن کاملAccuracy, Language Dependence and Joyce’s Argument for Probabilism
In this note, I explain how a variant of David Miller’s (1975) argument concerning the language-dependence of the accuracy of predictions can be applied to Joyce’s (1998) notion of the accuracy of “estimates of numerical truth-values” (viz., Joycean credences). This leads to a potential problem for Joyce’s accuracy-dominance-based argument for the conclusion that credences (understood as “estim...
