 Any version of the expected utility principle, whether it uses conditional probabilities or probabilities of conditionals, must specify the information that guides assignments of probabilities and utilities. Principles of nonconditional expected-utility maximization use the same information for all options, and hence exclude information about an option’s realization. The principle of ratification uses for each option information that includes the option’s realization. It is a principle of conditional expected-utility maximization. Egan’s cases count against nonconditional expected-utility maximization, and not against causal decision theory. Conditional expected-utility maximization using causal decision theory’s formula for expected utility addresses the cases he presents.
