AB  - It is shown that the quantum-theoretical descriptions of idealized Stern–Gerlach and Einstein–Podolsky–Rosen–Bohm experiments result from a logical inference treatment of robust experiments, without relying on concepts of quantum theory. For concreteness, the derivation is given for the case that the Stern–Gerlach magnet deflects the beam in three different directions, which in quantum theory corresponds to a description in terms of spin-1 particles. The logical inference description of the Einstein–Podolsky–Rosen–Bohm experiment is shown to contain the quantum theoretical description as a particular case.
