probability density function

[‚präb·ə′bil·əd·ē ¦den·səd·ē ‚fəŋk·shən]
(statistics)
A real-valued function whose integral over any set gives the probability that a random variable has values in this set. Also known as density function; frequency function.

Since we've assumed that chance is a probability function, any credence function satisfying (PP), (NP) or (GR) will also satisfy (Prob).) (10) If the non-reductionist can show that [v.sub.w](*) = [urch.sub.w](*), then she can show that it is rational to follow the credence-chance principle she favors.
