The problem of modeling uncertainty and inexact reasoning in rule-based expert systems is challenging on nonnative as well on cognitive grounds. First, the modular structure of the rule-based architecture does not lend itself to standard Bayesian inference techniques. Second, there is no consensus on how to model human (expert) judgement under uncertainty. These factors have led to a proliferation of quasi-probabilistic belief calculi which are widely-used in practice. This paper investigates the descriptive and external validity of three well-known "belief languages:" the Bayesian, ad-hoc Bayesian, and the certainty factors languages. These models are implemented in many commercial expert system shells, and their validity is clearly an im...
