    Reasons For

    1 perspective
    Reason for
    ?
    • 1.Particularism implies Outcome Independence (OI)
      ?

      Think about whether this reason is strong or weak

    • 2.If a condition implies OI, then a violation of OI implies a violation of that condition
      ?

      Think about whether this reason is strong or weak

    Reasons Against

    2 perspectives
    Reason against 1 of 2
    ?
    • 1.Relational holism requires that relata lack intrinsic properties fixing their relations, but OI violations are compatible with particles retaining intrinsic states.
      ?

      Think about whether this reason is strong or weak

    • 2.Teller's relational holism demands irreducible relations as ontological primitives, yet OI violations can be explained by separable hidden-variable structures lacking such primitives.
      ?

      Think about whether this reason is strong or weak

    Reason against 2 of 2
    ?
    • 1.Particularism's failure entails only that correlations are not determined by separate intrinsic states, which is equally consistent with property holism rather than relational holism.
      ?

      Think about whether this reason is strong or weak

    • 2.Healey distinguishes property holism from relational holism, and the inference from non-particularism to relational holism illicitly collapses this distinction.
      ?

      Think about whether this reason is strong or weak

    It is frequently argued or maintained that violations of OI involve state non-separability and/or some type of holism, whereas violations of PI involve action at a distance. For notable examples, Howard (1989) argues that spatiotemporal separability (see section 4.3) implies OI, and accordingly a violation of it implies spatiotemporal non-separability; Teller (1989) argues that particularism (see section 4.3) implies OI, and thus a violation of it implies relational holism; and Jarrett (1984, 19
