Conditionalization and Essentially Indexical Credence
Journal of Philosophy 109 (4):295-315 (2012)
| Abstract | One can have no prior credence whatsoever (not even zero) in a temporally indexical claim. This fact saves the principle of conditionalization from potential counterexample and undermines the Elga and Arntzenius/Dorr arguments for the thirder position and Lewis' argument for the halfer position on the Sleeping Beauty Problem, thereby supporting the double-halfer position. | |||||||||
