(In a similar spirit of posting things somewhat related to this general topic while apologising to Greg for doing so...)
A few months ago, I collected on LessWrong a variety of terms I’d found for describing something like the “trustworthiness” of probabilities, along with quotes and commentary about those terms. Specifically, the terms included:
Epistemic credentials
Resilience (of credences)
Evidential weight (balance vs weight of evidence)
Probability distributions (and confidence intervals)
Precision, sharpness, vagueness
Haziness
Hyperpriors, credal sets, and other things I haven’t really learned about
It’s possible that some readers of this post would find that collection interesting/useful.
To add to your list—Subjective Logic represents opinions with three values: degree of belief, degree of disbelief, and degree of uncertainty. One interpretation of this is as a form of second-order uncertainty. It’s used for modelling trust. A nice summary here with interactive tools for visualising opinions and a trust network.
