A comparison is made between probability and relative plausibility as approaches for the interpretation of evidence. It is argued that a probabilistic approach is capable of answering the criticisms of the proponents of relative plausibility. It is also shown that a probabilistic approach can answer the problem of overlapping where there is evidence that each side claims supports its theory of what happened.
本文对概率和相对似真性这两种证据解释方法进行了比较。文章认为,概率方法能够回应相对似真性支持者的批评。同时还表明,概率方法能够解决证据重叠问题,即双方都声称有证据支持其关于事件发生情况的理论。
