Abstract
An analysis is made within the quantum formalism of the probabilistic features of the electron spin correlation, with the purpose of clarifying the concepts of contextuality and measurement dependence. The quantum formulas for the spin correlation are then derived on the basis of a probability distribution function and its associated geometric representation, both for a pair of projections of a single-particle spin and for the bipartite system in singlet spin state. This endows the spin correlation with a clear probabilistic meaning and leaves the door open for a possible physical image of the electron spin, as discussed at the end of the paper.
