Phys. Rev. Lett. 48, 291–295 (1982)Hidden Variables, Joint Probability, and the Bell InequalitiesReceived 28 July 1981; published in the issue dated 1 February 1982 It is shown that the following statements about a quantum correlation experiment are mutually equivalent. (1) There is a deterministic hidden-variables model for the experiment. (2) There is a factorizable, stochastic model. (3) There is one joint distribution for all observables of the experiment, returning the experimental probabilities. (4) There are well-defined, compatible joint distributions for all pairs and triples of commuting and noncommuting observables. (5) The Bell inequalities hold. © 1982 The American Physical Society URL:
