frequency theory — of probability … Philosophy dictionary
frequency theory of probability — The view developed by Richard von Mises (1883–1953), in his Probability, Statistics, and Truth (1957; 1st German edn., 1928) that the probability of an event in a situation can be defined in terms of the frequency of occurrence of events of the… … Philosophy dictionary
