Abstract
Hershey and Baron (1992) have criticized the validity of research on j udgment by outcomes, which fail to establish that this judgment consti tutes a bias. This reply argues that Hershey and Baron's criticism is based on a probabilistic version of affirming the consequent and that judgment by outcomes can be studied independently of the issue of bias .
