Abstract

This paper aims to discuss a typical event of scientific activity - namely, the publication of scientific papers - from the point of view of the pragmatics of scientific investigation combined with the perspective of Patrick Suppes regarding what would be a free choice. First, Suppes' idea of introducing a measure for freedom is presented. Secondly, an outline of the conception of pragmatics of scientific investigation is given. Finally, an interpretation of a trajectory of investigation in terms of Markov chains is presented.
