Kurzbeschreibung des Projektes / Short description of the Project

In this project, I explore a number of desiderata that an adequate objective theory of confirmation would need to satisfy. To give you a small taste, here are three desiderata that I deem necessary. An objective theory of confirmation needs to: (1) issue unambiguous and invariant confirmational assessments, (2) adhere to the principle that all positive and negative instances of a hypothesis possess confirmational weight and (3) be able to expose the deficiencies of post-hocly constructed hypotheses.
