On my Manifold Survey, I will ask:

Which are more fundamental, beliefs or credences?

  • Beliefs

  • Credences

  • Both are equally fundamental.

  • Neither is fundamental.

  • Not sure

  • Other

I'll also include the background details:

A credence (sometimes called a degree of belief) represents how probable you consider a given claim, while a belief is whether you think a claim is true. Some philosophers or psychologists would say that beliefs are the more fundamental psychological concept, and credences just represent how confident we are in various beliefs or are derived from them in some way. Others would say that credences are more fundamental and that a belief is just a claim that we have a certain level of credence in.

Will more respondents select "credences" than "beliefs"?
