Based on the notions of an information state and a generalized observable, this framework allows us to subsume different types of randomness and experiment effects within a single mathematical structure. Adjusting this framework to the quantum case, we clarify what is really "quantum" in quantum measurement theory.22 pages, 3 figures; Proceedings of Vaxjo Conference (June 2003)Quantum PhysicsMathematical PhysicsProbabilityGeneral framework for the probabilistic description of experimentstext
