Abstract
Starobinsky described an inflationary scenario in which quantum corrections to vacuum Einstein equations drive the inflation. The quantum cosmology of the model is studied by solving the Wheeler-DeWitt equation. A connection between uncertainty requirement, randomness in initial states and curvature fluctuation is studied with a Schr\"{o}dinger-type equation through a time parameter prescription. The result obtained is applied to understand the decoherence mechanism in quantum gravity in the Starobinsky description.
