Goldstick and O'Neill on “Truer Than”
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 01 April 2022
Abstract
In a recent article, Goldstick and O'Neill propose a definition for the comparative “truer than” relation between rival propositions. This definition is studied here in a context where the concept of “convexity” is well defined for propositions. It turns out that the Goldstick-O'Neill definition gives a reasonable but very restricted sufficient condition for the “truer than” relation, but fails as a necessary condition.
