{"product_id":"higher-order-evidence-and-calibrationism","title":"Higher-Order Evidence and Calibrationism","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe higher-order evidence debate concerns how higher-order evidence affects the rationality of our first-order beliefs. This Element has two parts. The first part (Sections 1 and 2) provides a critical overview of the literature, aiming to explain why the higher-order evidence debate is interesting and important. The second part (Sections 3 to 6) defends calibrationism, the view that we should respond to higher-order evidence by aligning our credences to our reliability degree. The author first discusses the traditional version of calibrationism and explains its main difficulties, before proposing a new version of calibrationism called 'Evidence-Discounting Calibrationism.' The Element argues that this new version is independently plausible and that it can avoid the difficulties faced by the traditional version.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Cambridge University Press Bookshop","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":56668231860610,"sku":"9781009124195","price":18.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0475\/2031\/7597\/files\/9781009124195i.jpg?v=1779551546","url":"https:\/\/www.cambridgebookshop.co.uk\/products\/higher-order-evidence-and-calibrationism","provider":"Cambridge University Press Bookshop","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
