D EDUCTIVE R EASONING By Kari Fowler

W HAT IS D EDUCTIVE R EASONING ?  Opposite of Inductive Reasoning  In Deductive Reasoning you are taking something general and applying it to a specific instance.  3 Steps to Deductive Reasoning  1) Take a general true conclusion  2) Apply the conclusion to a specific instances to demonstrate…..  3) The conclusion does indeed apply to the instance

T ERMS Y OU NEED T O K NOW Terms that you must use to argue deductively, Most, many, often etc. Absolute Terms: never use words like, all, never or always.

C HAPTER E XAMPLE Susan B. Anthony defended that fact that she had voted in the 1872 election- forty-eight years before women were given the right to vote. She claims she committed no crime but simply exercised her citizen’s rights. For support she commented on the preamble of the Federal Constitution. “We the People of the United States, in order to form a more perfect union, establish justice…..and establish this Constitution for the United States of America.”

D ID Y OU C ATCH THAT !?! “ We the People of the United States, in order to form a more perfect union, establish justice…..and establish this Constitution for the United States of America.” The Preamble states that “We the people,” not we the male citizens. We the people as in meaning both male and female.

T WO T ESTS FOR D EDUCTIVE R EASONING First Test: Make sure it is valid. If it isn’t then it can’t be applied to specific instances. Needs factual support. Second Test: Whether the generalization applies to a particular case.

T HE A NSWERS 1) A variety of different answers! : ) 2) Do not use any terms that are extreme. For example, always and never. 3) First Test: Make sure it is valid. If it isn’t then it can’t be applied to specific instances. Needs factual support. Second Test: Whether the generalization applies to a particular case.
