Do Decisions Follow Quantum-Like Probabilities?
Some researchers use quantum-inspired probability to model order and context effects in judgment. This is not evidence that brains operate as quantum computers.
Quantum-like models borrow mathematical tools from quantum probability to represent context-dependent judgments and question-order effects. They do not imply that brains or computers necessarily perform physical quantum computation.
Such models earn their place only if they explain or predict observations better than adequate classical alternatives.
