1. The definition of logic is given in the introduction is "the
of
."
2. The three divisions of philosophy are
3. Give the following definitions
4. Logic is divided into two branches:
5. Formal logic studies the
or
of arguments.
6. Material logic studies the
of arguments.
7. From the perspective of formal logic, you would want to know whether an argument is
.
8. From the perspective of material logic, you would want to know if an argument is
.
9. From the answers you gave in Question 4., indicate what would go in boxes A and B of the following chart:
10. Using your answers to Question 4. and the diagram in Question 9., and the text upon which you based your answers, indicate what goes in each line of the simple outline of the division you showed graphically in Question 9.
EXAMPLE: The major subject or point would go here The first secondary subject or subpoint would go here The second secondary subject or subpoint would go here
11. When we want to know whether an argument is valid, we specifically want to know whether the
logically follows from the two
.
12. When we want to know whether an argument is sound, we specifically want to know whether the two premises are in fact
13. The two kinds of logic studied under formal logic are:
14. From the answers you gave in Questions 4 & 13., indicate what would go in boxes A, B, C, and D of the following chart:
15. Using your answers to Question 13. and the wdiagram in Question 14., and the text upon which you based your answers, indicate what goes in each line of the simple ooutline of the division you showed graphically in Question 14.
16. What is the difference beween deductive and inductive reasoning?
In
reasoning, the conclusion asserts no more than what is contained in the premises. In
reasoning, more is asserted in the conclusion than is contained in the premises.
Valid deductive arguments offer
proof for their conclusions, whereas valid inductive arguments offer only good
for believing the conclusion.
We say that good deductive arguments are
, but that good inductive arguments are only
.
17. The two kinds of reason into which deduction can be divided are:
18. From the answers you gave in Questions 4., 13., and 17. indicate what would go in boxes A, B, C, D, E, and F of the following chart:
19. Using your answers to Question 13. and the diagram in Question 14., and the text upon which you based your answers, indicate what goes in each line of the simple outline of the division you showed graphically in Question 14.
20. Categorical reasoning orders thought according to the connection between
.
21. Hypothetical reasoning orders thought according to the connection between whole
.
22. The three areas of study that reason encompasses are:
23. Simple apprehension is the act by which the intellect grasps or perceives something without
or
anything about it.
24. Judgment is the act by which we
concepts by affirming or
concepts by denying.
25. Deductive inference is the act by which we logically acquire new
by means of what we already
.
26. The three kinds of hypothetical syllogisms are:
27. From the answers you gave in previous questions, indicate what would go in boxes A through L of the following chart:
28. Using your answers to previous questions., and the text upon which you based your answers, indicate what goes in each line of the simple outline of the division you showed graphically in Question 27.
