Can we Falsify the Consciousness-Causes-Collapse Hypothesis in Quantum Mechanics?

J. Acacio de Barros, Gary Oas

In this paper we examine some proposals to disprove the hypothesis that the interaction between mind and matter causes the collapse of the wave function, showing that such proposal…

Some Examples of Contextuality in Physics: Implications to Quantum Cognition

J. Acacio de Barros, Gary Oas

Contextuality, the impossibility of assigning a single random variable to represent the outcomes of the same measurement procedure under different experimental conditions, is a cen…

Negative Probabilities and Contextuality

J. Acacio de Barros, Janne Kujala, Gary Oas

There has been a growing interest, both in physics and psychology, in understanding contextuality in experimentally observed quantities. Different approaches have been proposed to…

A Survey of Physical Principles Attempting to Define Quantum Mechanics

Gary Oas, J. Acacio de Barros

Quantum mechanics, one of the most successful theories in the history of science, was created to account for physical systems not describable by classical physics. Though it is con…

Negative probabilities and Counterfactual Reasoning on the double-slit Experiment

J. Acacio de Barros, Gary Oas, Patrick Suppes

In this paper we attempt to establish a theory of negative (quasi) probability distributions from fundamental principles and apply it to the study of the double-slit experiment in…

Measuring Observable Quantum Contextuality

J. Acacio de Barros, Ehtibar N. Dzhafarov, Janne V. Kujala +1

Contextuality is a central property in comparative analysis of classical, quantum, and supercorrelated systems. We examine and compare two well-motivated approaches to contextualit…
