Preferred term

Definition
- Support theory is a descriptive model of probability judgment that posits that judgments of probability are made based on descriptions of events rather than on events themselves. Probability theory provides a normative framework for determining the probability of a combination of disjoint events. [Source: Encyclopedia of Medical Decision Making; Support Theory]
