description

This paper is a brief overview of the concepts involved in measuring the degree of contextuality and detecting contextuality in systems of binary measurements of a finite number of objects. We discuss and clarify the main concepts and terminology of the theory called “contextuality-by-default,” and then discuss generalizations of the theory to arbitrary systems of arbitrary random variables.
