Conditionalization objection(the specific critique being referenced): Van Fraassen's argument that the standard rule for updating beliefs (conditionalization) doesn't account for all the ways we actually should change our minds when learning new things.
Mapping-based inferences(an example of a method that goes beyond strict conditionalization): A way of updating your beliefs by using a systematic method or pattern (a 'map') to determine how probabilities should change, rather than just using the standard conditionalization rule.
Van Fraassen(the philosopher whose theory is being discussed): Bas van Fraassen is a contemporary philosopher who studies how we understand questions and knowledge. He developed influential ideas about how questions work and what it means to explain things.
conditionalization(Bayesian epistemology): The process of updating prior beliefs to interim beliefs by conditioning on the agent's hard information
