Abstract Belief revision theories standardly endorse a principle of intensionality to the effect that ideal doxastic agents do not discriminate between pieces information are equivalent within classical logic. I argue this should be rejected. Its failure, on my view, does require failures logical omniscience part agent, but results from view update as mighty : encoding what agent learns might c...

Supernatural beliefs are ubiquitous around the world, and mounting evidence indicates that these partly rely on intuitive, cross-culturally recurrent cognitive processes. Specifically, past research has focused humans' intuitive tendency to perceive minds as part of foundations belief in a personified God—an agentic, morally concerned supernatural entity.

Several philosophers and psychologists have characterized belief in conspiracy theories as a product of irrational reasoning. Proponents apparently resist revising their beliefs given disconfirming evidence tend to believe more than one conspiracy, even when the relevant are mutually inconsistent. In this paper, we bring leading views on theoretic closer together by exploring rationality under ...

In this work, we introduce a new and efficient solution approach for the problem of decision making under uncertainty, which can be formulated as in belief space, over possibly high-dimensional state space. Typically, to solve problem, one should identify optimal action from set candidates, according some objective. We claim that often generate an analogous yet simplified solved more efficientl...
