I was playing with the Justified True Belief analysis of knowledge and the Gettier problem and such. I thought it might be fun to consider each part of the tripartite as a different axis such that:
Justified is on one end and Assumed on the other,
True on one end and False on the other,
Belief on one end and Doubt on the other.

I tried to then label each sector with what I thought best fit.
Clearly the JTB sector is Knowledge... but what of the rest?

Do you agree with my labels?
Can you think of better ones?

I am, by no means, more that a neophyte. So consider my comment with that amount of merit.
Thus
The Z axis in the top diagram troubles me. At present I cannot think of an illustration of degrees of True/False. They appear as absolutes.
