Argument | show 🗑
|

Inductive Argument | show 🗑

🗑

🗑

||||
show | one whose conclusion is claimed to follow from its premises only with probability, this probability being a matter of degree and dependent upon what else may be the case.
🗑
|

show | An attribute of a proposition that asserts what really is the case.
🗑
|
||||
Truth and Falsity are attributes of individual propositions where as validity and invalidity are attributes of | show 🗑
|
||||
The concept of truth cannot apply to arguments, just as validity cannot apply to a single proposition. | show 🗑
|
||||
show | T
🗑
|
||||
The truth or falsity of an argument's conclusion does not by itself determine the validity or invalidity of the argument. The fact that an argument is valid does not guarantee the truth of the conclusion. | show 🗑
