The standard theory of quantum computation relies on the idea that the basic information quantity is represented by a superposition of elements of the canonical basis and the notion of probability naturally follows from the Born rule. In this work we consider three valued quantum computational logics. More specifically, we will focus on the Hilbert space $$\mathbb C^{3}$$C3, we discuss extensions of several gates to this space and, using the notion of effect probability, we provide a characterization of its states.
