At the end of this lesson, you will be able to Explain what independent reasons are Use theme changer expressions to communicate and analyze arguments with independent reasons Dr. Dona Warren, Department of Philosophy The University of Wisconsin-Stevens Point Argument Structure VI) Lesson 4: Theme Changers (with Independent Reasons) Argument Structure VI) Lesson 4: Theme Changers (with Independent Reasons) VI) Lesson 4 – Slide 1

Leslie should get a dog. + Leslie needs company. A dog would help Leslie to get more exercise. Two or more ideas or groups of ideas are independent reasons in support of a conclusion if each idea or group of ideas is capable of supporting the conclusion on its own. They give us independent lines of reasoning. A dog is good company. Leslie would take a dog for a walk everyday. VI) Lesson 4 – Slide 2

Leslie should get a dog. + Leslie needs company. A dog would help Leslie to get more exercise. A dog is good company. Leslie would take a dog for a walk everyday. “Company” Theme “Exercise” Theme Each line of reasoning has its own theme. VI) Lesson 4 – Slide 3

Leslie should get a dog. + Leslie needs company. A dog would help Leslie to get more exercise. A dog is good company. Leslie would take a dog for a walk everyday. Theme Changer Expressions “Besides,” “Furthermore,” “In addition to this,” “As if that weren’t enough,” “For one thing… For another thing…,” “First… Second… Third…,” “Finally” “Leslie should get a dog. After all, Leslie needs company and a dog is good company. Besides, Leslie would take a dog for a walk every day so a dog would help Leslie to get more exercise.” “Leslie needs company and a dog is good company. It follows that Leslie should get a dog. In addition to this, a dog would help Leslie to get more exercise since Leslie would take a dog for a walk every day.” VI) Lesson 4 – Slide 4

Leslie should get a cat. + Cats don’t require daily walks. Leslie wouldn’t have to move in order to get a cat. Leslie doesn’t have time to walk an animal every day. “Leslie wouldn’t have to move in order to get a cat because her apartment complex permits them. That’s one good reason why Leslie should get a cat. In addition to this, Leslie just doesn’t have time to walk an animal every day and cats don’t require daily walks.” Leslie’s apartment complex permits cats. VI) Lesson 4 – Slide 5
