Ideal rationality and the relation between propositional and doxastic justification
In this paper, I explore how the ideal rationality-based account of propositional justification impacts our understanding of the relation between...

Acceptance and Certainty, Doxastic Modals, and Indicative Conditionals
I give a semantics for a logic with two pairs of doxastic modals and an indicative conditional connective that all nest without restriction....

On the pure logic of justified belief
Justified belief is a core concept in epistemology and there has been an increasing interest in its logic over the last years. While many logical...
