Differences And Characteristics Of Inductive Reasoning

* Sales reps secure the best product placement in stores, conducting taste tests in stores and convincing “individual store managers to pull the product from the central buyer.” (Singer, 2008)

Peplau utilized both deductive and inductive reasoning in her theory development work (Reed & Shearer, 2011). The deductive reasoning methods used were that Peplau integrated ideas from a number of theories into her theory of interpersonal relations. Influenced by works of Sigmund Freud, particularly his interest in unconscious motivation as well as Harry S. Sullivan’s theory of interpersonal relations all contributed to her development of the theory of interpersonal processes in nursing, For example she refers to Sullivan’s concepts of anxiety, self-system and modes of experiencing. (Peterson & Bredow, 2017). She also incorporated into her theory some elements from developmental psychology and learning theory (Armstrong & Kelly, 1995) and some ideas of the humanistic psychologists, Abraham Maslow, Rollo May and Carl Rogers. (Peterson & Bredow, 2017). For example, Peplau’s systematic approach to establishment of nurse-patient relationship and therapeutic intervention are ideas that resonated with Martha Rogers' theoretical assumptions about human pattern and organization. (Armstrong & Kelly, 1995).

2) Deductive logic starts with a premise and applies it to a specific case to reach a conclusion

Allen uses two different techniques in order to support her argument that self-evidence is the same as a syllogism. Aristotle was the one to originally come up with the idea of “stringing together valid premises to yield a self-evident conclusion” or a syllogism. She introduces that he came up with this method of a syllogism because he gives Allen’s argument credibility due to the fact that Aristotle is a well-known Greek philosopher. Allen then goes on to show how coming to a conclusion can be similar to following a procedure using the Bill Gates is moral example.

Putting the data into related groups that will either confirm, enhance or disagree with each group of data. The process of synthesizing the information, using the current data, past history of the subject(s), and additional relevant information, begins toward a final conclusion.

Deductive reasoning entails the argument in which the hypothesis is true and, therefore, the conclusion remains to be true. This argument follows a correct logical form whereby if the hypothesis is true then its conclusion is valid and if the premises are untrue then the conclusion is invalid. Louis Pojman explicates that deductive reasoning preserves the truth, and the arguments are of soundness while;

c. Using materiality to determine whether the accumulated errors, are they large enough to justify an opinion

This is a deductive argument. A deductive argument is an argument that is intended by the arguer to be deductively valid. As the deductive arguer here I am attempting to provide the truth of the conclusion that is provided by my arguments premises and they should be true statements.

 Recognize, write the patterns, and construct the valid syllogisms: DS, PHS, AA, and DC.
