But Ernest Adams [A65, A75] has pointed out that conditionals seem valid arguments such as modus ponens and modus tollens in which conditional 3.2 Modus Ponens for Conditional Probabilities 3.3 Modus Tollens for Conditional Probabilities Unlike the case of modus tollens for probabilities of conditionals, we cannot make what might reasonably be termed modus tollens for conditional probabilities. = 0.38, it involves less degradation than modus ponens for conditional probabilities. ./cache/work_2n7rvvpewbcxtnsuc5hfmcbnzi.pdf ./txt/work_2n7rvvpewbcxtnsuc5hfmcbnzi.txt
