One prominent example is the quantum double-slit experiment owing to Feynman (Feynman 1951 In Second Berkeley Symposium on Mathematical Statistics and Probability (ed. J. Neyman), pp. 533\u2013541 (doi:10.1525\/9780520411586-039)). A related non-quantum example, inspired by Boole (Boole 1862 Phil. Trans. R. Soc. Lond. 152, 225\u2013252 (doi:10.1098\/rstl.1862.0015)) and Vorob'ev (Vorob\u2019ev 1962 Theory Probab. Appl.7, 147\u2013163 (doi:10.1137\/1107014)), has three two-valued random variables X, Y and Z, where the pairs X, Y and X, Z are perfectly correlated, yet Y, Z are perfectly anti-correlated. Such examples can be accommodated using a \u2018multi-measurable\u2019 space with several different sigma-algebras of measurable events. This concept, owing to Vorob'ev (Vorob\u2019ev 1962 Theory Probab. Appl.7, 147\u2013163 (doi:10.1137\/1107014)), allows construction of (i) a measurable metaspace whose elements combine a point in the original sample space with a variable \u2018contextual\u2019 Boolean algebra; (ii) a parametric family of \u2018probability metaspaces\u2019, each of which is a Kolmogorov probability space that represents a two-stage stochastic process where a random choice from the original sample space is preceded by the random choice of a contextual Boolean algebra in the multi-measurable space. Subsequent work will explore how quantum experimental results can be described using a quantum measurement tree with one or more preparation nodes, where an experimental configuration is determined that governs the probability distribution of relevant quantum observables.<\/jats:p>\n                  <jats:p>This article is part of the theme issue \u2018Quantum theory and topology in models of decision making (Part 2)\u2019.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1098\/rsta.2024.0560","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2026,1,8]],"date-time":"2026-01-08T14:07:40Z","timestamp":1767881260000},"source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":1,"title":["Quantum measurement trees, I: two preliminary examples of induced contextual Boolean algebras"],"prefix":"10.1098","volume":"383","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-1125-3612","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Peter","family":"Hammond","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"University of Warwick 1 , , ,","place":["Coventry, West Midlands, UK"],"department":["Department of Economics"]}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"175","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2025,12,11]]},"reference":[{"key":"2026010809073085500_R1","unstructured":"Zermelo\n              E\n            \n          . 1913\u00dcber eine Anwendung der Mengenlehre auf die Theorie des Schachspiels.
