Inductive versus Deductive Arguments – can concepts of (strength and cogency) and (validity and soundness) be used interchangeably? Unlike deductive arguments‚ inductive arguments are not truth preserving. That is‚ even if an inductive argument has a good logical form‚ it will never be the case that if the premises are true‚ the conclusion must be true. The most that an inductive argument can hope for is that it’s highly probable that its conclusion is true. In other words‚ a good inductive argument

The best way to describe the similarities and difference between inductive and deductive arguments‚ it would be best if the term "argument" had a definition. Everyday people have arguments. For these everyday conversations "argument" means "dispute". In this Logic class an argument consists of claims or statements followed by a final claim.

Deductive versus Inductive When presenting a logical argument the process of supporting the conclusion comes from the premises provided. Therefore‚ to stand up and present his or her beliefs‚ then will need a form of logical‚ deductive‚ and inductive reasoning to establish your argument. In the approach of a valid argument‚ there are seven rules of deductive inference and they are Modus Ponens‚ Modus Tollens‚ Hypothetical Syllogism‚ Disjunctive Syllogism‚ Conjunction‚ Simplification

THE TYPES OF ARGUMENTS Normally we classify all arguments into one of two types: deductive and inductive. Deductive arguments are those meant to work because of their pattern alone‚ so that if the premises are true the conclusion could not be false. All other arguments are considered to be inductive (or just non-deductive)‚ and these are meant to work because of the actual information in the premises so that if the premises are true the conclusion is not likely to be false. The difference is

conclusions by the use of logical argument. There are three basic form of reasoning: inductive‚ deductive and the combination of both called inductive/deductive (Walliman & Baiche‚ 2001). Inductive and Deductive Reasoning Inductive Reasoning Inductive reasoning is one method of reasoning that researchers use. It is based on making a conclusion or generalization based on a limited number of observations. Thus‚ it produces from the specific to the general. All research that makes inference or generalizations

1. I see many differences from a deductive approach to the research: the fact itself that this research is qualitative‚ often lead to implement the “opposite” approach‚ the inductive one. Evidence of this are various and enough clear: - to go there on the field is not really a prerogative of the deductive approach: instead‚ what usually happens is that many quantitative data are gathered‚ with strongly structured and often impersonal methods. So‚ what happens in the case we’re dealing with is clearly
