Linearity Principle/Lewis/Field: P(D) = P (D I B). P(B) + P(D I ~ B). P(~ B) - is not acceptable for the nonfactualism if D is a form of A > C. >Nonfactualism. That is, the law for belief degree fails. >Belief degrees, Belief degree/conditional: in conditional conditions, the classical probability laws for belief degrees do not apply. Disquotational truth/conditional: refers to the whole: "when Clinton dies Gore becomes President" is true iff Clinton dies and Gore becomes president. >Disquotational truth. Non-disquotational: with simple sentences such as disquotational truth. For conditionals: simplest solution: without truth value. >Truth values.}, note = { Field I H.
