Question

Susanna Rinard’s principle of Equal Treatment holds that the rationality of these states should be assessed in the same way as other states. The AGM model represents these states as deductively closed sets of sentences and formally models their “revision.” These states are identified with sets of outward behaviors in dispositional accounts. Quine’s confirmation holism holds that scientific theories rely on our entire (*) “web of” these states. Alvin Goldman and other reliabilists hold that these states can be trusted if they are obtained via a truth-conducive process. In a 1963 paper, Smith holds this state with respect to there being 10 coins in Jones’s pocket, but he seemingly does not (10[1])[emphasize] know that the man with 10 coins (-5[1])will get the job, despite that state being justified and true. For 10 points, name these attitudes that we have about what is true. (10[1])■END■ (10[1])
