**Authors:** Doron Cohen

arXiv: 0704.1087 · 2007-05-23

## TL;DR

This paper explains that quantum collapse is analogous to classical probability updates, using the Monty Hall Paradox to clarify misconceptions about the metaphysical nature of quantum state changes.

## Contribution

It introduces a pedagogical analogy between quantum collapse and classical probability updates to demystify quantum measurement.

## Key findings

- Quantum collapse is akin to classical probability updates.
- The Monty Hall Paradox illustrates the non-metaphysical nature of probability changes.
- Clarifies misconceptions about quantum measurement and collapse.

## Abstract

The purpose of this manuscript is to provide a short pedagogical explanation why "quantum collapse" is not a metaphysical event, by pointing out the analogy with a "classical collapse" which is associated with the Monty Hall Paradox.
