1The condition under which a given proposition is true.
〔逻〕真值情况,真假情况
Example sentencesExamples
The belief condition excludes ignorance, the truth condition excludes error, and the justification condition excludes mere opinion.
Consequently, he suggests alternative truth conditions for propositions of the form Possibly p, namely, that it is possible that p be true in some possible world.
Conditions 1 and 2 jointly entail the truth condition for knowledge: S knows b to have F (at t) only if b does have F (at t).
The resulting sentence would have a different flavour, and in some instances would be mildly eccentric, but would not have a different truth condition.
Neither kind of truth condition has proved entirely satisfactory.
1.1A statement of the condition under which a given proposition is true, sometimes taken to be the meaning of the proposition.

Example sentencesExamples
Roughly put, noncognitivists think that moral statements have no truth conditions.
Nothing in this statement of the truth conditions of a counterfactual conditional seems to make any reference, either explicit or implicit, to causality.
We see that for different reasons none of these candidates can be included in the truth conditions for statements of the form ‘A remembers that p.’ I believe we do not have the conception of anything else that might fill the gap.
Such a response, however, requires a satisfactory account of the truth conditions of modal statements - something that lies outside the scope of this article
