{ "pk": 26135, "title": "A test of two models of probability judgment: quantum versus noisy probability", "subtitle": null, "abstract": "We test contrasting predictions of two recent models of proba-bility judgment: the quantum probability model (Busemeyeret al., 2011) and the probability theory plus noise model(Costello and Watts, 2014). Both models assume that peo-ple estimate probability using formal processes that follow orsubsume standard probability theory. The quantum probabil-ity model predicts people’s estimates should agree with oneset of probability theory identities, while the probability the-ory plus noise model predicts a specific pattern of violation ofthose identities. Experimental results show just the form of vi-olation predicted by the probability theory plus noise model.These results suggest that people’s probability judgments donot follow quantum probability: instead, they follow the rulesof standard probability theory, with the systematic biases seenin those judgments due to the effects of random noise.", "language": "eng", "license": { "name": "", "short_name": "", "text": null, "url": "" }, "keywords": [], "section": "Papers", "is_remote": true, "remote_url": "https://escholarship.org/uc/item/1w83n9nr", "frozenauthors": [ { "first_name": "Fintan", "middle_name": "J.", "last_name": "Costello", "name_suffix": "", "institution": "University College Dublin", "department": "" }, { "first_name": "Paul", "middle_name": "", "last_name": "Watts", "name_suffix": "", "institution": "National University of Ireland Maynooth,", "department": "" } ], "date_submitted": null, "date_accepted": null, "date_published": "2016-01-01T18:00:00Z", "render_galley": null, "galleys": [ { "label": "PDF", "type": "pdf", "path": "https://journalpub.escholarship.org/cognitivesciencesociety/article/26135/galley/15771/download/" } ] }
