Multiple Choice

Match each form of reasoning with its definition.
-Deductive reasoning.

• A) This type of reasoning starts from a specific situation and, through a series of inferences from that specific situation, reaches a conclusion that is generally applicable. This form of reasoning provides less certain results than the other form because there is a greater margin of error in drawing inferences from one specific example to come to conclusions that are applicable to a range of situations.
• B) This type of reasoning starts from a general situation and, through a series of inferences, reaches a conclusion on a specific point. As long as the major and minor premises are correctly constructed, then the conclusion has to be true. This is a more certain form of reasoning.
