AB - The aim of the paper is to analyze the stopping rule and the likelihood principle from a point of Bayesianism in order to explicate the role of experiment in Bayesianism. More specifically, I shall examine the reason for Bayesians to reject the rule, and then search for some way to incorporate empirical factors connected to the rule into Bayesianism. In this search we can understand a new method that Bayesians accommodate empirical evidence originated from experiments. First, I shall make a brief about the stopping rule, and then review Bayesian criticisms of it. Second, I shall examine the likelihood principle as Bayesians' principal reason for rejecting the stopping rule. Third, in order to search for the possibility that Bayesianism can well deal with experimental aspects I shall suggest two kinds of Bayesianism, the modified version of Bayesianism and the expanded version of Bayesianism; the former accepts the stopping rule by making some radical theoretical change, and the latter expands the standard Bayesianism by adding some new elements to its theoretical framework.
