Two notions of epistemic validity
Synthese 109 (2):217 - 262 (1996)
Abstract
How to accept a conditional? F. P. Ramsey proposed the following test in (Ramsey 1990).(RT) If A, then B must be accepted with respect to the current epistemic state iff the minimal hypothetical change of it needed to accept A also requires accepting B.Author's Profile

The preservation criterion says that if a prop-osition B is accepted in a given state of belief K and A is consistent with the beliefs in K, then B is still accepted in the minimal change of K needed to accept A.
