Abstract
The extended semantic realism (ESR) model proposes a new theoretical perspective that embodies the mathematical formalism of standard (Hilbert space) quantum mechanics (QM) in a noncontextual framework, reinterpreting quantum probabilities as conditional instead of absolute. We provide here a Hilbert space representation of the generalized observables introduced by the ESR model. By using this representation, we supply a straightforward generalization of the projection postulate and justify it in the case of discrete generalized observables by introducing a reasonable physical assumption on the evolution of the compound system made up of the (microscopic) measured system and the (macroscopic) measuring apparatus.
