| | Suppose we want to understand under what conditions on $latex B$ we have $latex \begin{aligned} \mathbb{E} B(f(X), g(Y))\leq B(\mathbb{E}f(X), \mathbb{E} g(Y)) \end{aligned}$holds for all test functions, say real valued $latex f,g$, where $latex X, Y$ are some random variables (not necessarily all possible random variables!). If $latex X=Y$, i.e., $latex X$ and $latex Y$ are...

| | The aim of this post is to motivate the idea of representing probability spaces as states on a commutative algebra. We will consider how this abstract construction relates directly to classical probabilities. In the standard axiomatization of probability theory, due to Kolmogorov, the central construct is a probability space $latex {(\Omega,\mathcal F,{\mathbb P})}&fg=000000$. This consists...

| Note also the blog post by Daniel Lakens on the same topic here. Update March 23, 2022: a more concise / slightly modified version of these thoughts was published as a letter in TREE, co-authored together with Fred Barraquand. Background Criticism of p-values has been rampant in recent years, as were predictions of their imminent...
