Indeed, the large majority of contemporary Bayesian philosophers of science seem to have subscribed to the following thesis: conjunct to hypothesis h with regard to evidence e just in case x is probabilistically independent from both h and e as well as from . The Bayesian problem of irrelevant conjunction is that, for any Bayesian confirmation measure, if e confirms h, then e also confirms , even if x is a confir-h ∧ x to actually have (2) as a theorem of Bayesian confirmation theory, we Fitelson (2004) themselves, a result of this kind provides a standard Bayesian solution to the problem of irrelevant conjunction.8 confirmation and the irrelevant conjunction problem is likely to come to (1999), "The Plurality of Bayesian Measures of Confirmation and the Problem (2004), "Bayesianism and Irrelevant Conjunction", Philosophy of Science 71: 515–	./cache/work_h3v5gr4zrvbkdkiuupuuhcuehu.pdf	./txt/work_h3v5gr4zrvbkdkiuupuuhcuehu.txt
