Abstract
It is argued that the nature of probability is essentially informational rather than physical and that quantum mechanical predictions should be viewed as logical inferences made on the basis of the information content of a given experimental situation. By implementing such a viewpoint, it is possible to maintain a sharp distinction between the physical and statistical aspects of quantum mechanics. The idea is applied to the double-beam interference experiment, reproducing the results of the standard formulation of quantum mechanics in a manner that renders the notion of wave-particle duality superfluous.
