• Accuracy and the Laws of Credence (2016, background): “61For a more negative assessment of the rule, see (Levinstein, 2012).”
• Strictly Proper Scoring Rules (2014, background): “Another advantage of the logarithmic epistemic SR over the epistemic Brier Score came to light in [32], under a certain rule of conditionalisation (L & P conditionalisation to be exact) the epistemic Brier Score makes you believe in ghosts while the epistemic logarithmic SR does not.”
• What Does It Mean to be Biased: Motivated Reasoning and Rationality (2014, background): “Leitgeb and Pettigrew (2010b) demonstrate that for a suitable measure of accuracy (justified in Leitgeb & Pettigrew, 2010a; but see Levinstein, 2012), Bayesianism follows from the simple premise that an agent ought to approximate the truth, and hence seek to minimize inaccuracy.”
