description This paper deals with the topics of modeling joint distributions on a generalized probability space. An algebraic structure known as quantum logic is taken as the basic model. There is a brief summary of some earlier published findings concerning a function <i>s</i>-map, which is a mathematical tool suitable for constructing virtual joint probabilities of even non-compatible propositions. The paper completes conclusions published in 2020 and extends the results for three or more random variables if the marginal distributions are known.
