    Part of a larger discussion

    Challenges→Identifying the solution to Selten's Horse on general principles requires reasoning about players' beliefs about conditional probabilities, not merely strategic beliefs about actions.

    If conditional probability assessments are themselves derived from perturbed payoff structures, then reasoning about them is a special case of strategic belief, not a categorically distinct operation.

    Key Terms

    Categorically distinct(The statement claims semantic mechanisms of different paradoxes are categorically distinct)
    Fundamentally different in type or category, not just different in degree.
    Payoff structures(as used in game theory and decision-making)
    The rewards or outcomes people receive based on the choices they and others make in a given situation.
    Perturbed(in describing how payoff structures are modified)
    Slightly changed or disrupted from an original state.
    Strategic belief(in game theory and decision theory)
    A belief you form or adjust based on thinking about what choices will give you the best outcome in a situation where others are also making choices.
    conditional probability(The theist characterization of what quantum cosmologies actually provide)
