    Abstract. The Situation Calculus has been used by Scherl and Levesque to represent beliefs and belief change without modal operators thanks to a predicate plays the role of an accessibility relation. Their approach has been extended by Shapiro et al. to support belief revision. In this extension plausibility levels are assigned to each situation, and the believed propositions are the propositions that are true in all the most plausible accessible situations. Their solution is quite elegant from a theoretical point of view but the definition of the plausibility assignment, for a given application domain, raises practical problems. This paper presents a new proposal that does not make use of plausibilities. The idea is to include the knowledge producing actions into the successor state axioms. In this framework each agent may have a different successor state axiom for a given fluent. Then, each agent may have his subjective view of the evolution of the world. Also, agents may kno
