Judgment and proposition or logical statementling selanoba
This document discusses judgment, propositions, and logical statements. It defines judgment as a mental act of affirming or denying something, while a proposition is the product of judgment expressed as a statement. Propositions take the form of sentences and can be declarative, interrogative, imperative, or exclamatory. Categorical propositions have a subject, predicate, and copula that relate the subject and predicate. The quality, quantity, and form of propositions are also explained. Hypothetical propositions include conditional statements relating an antecedent and consequent, disjunctive statements presenting alternatives, and conjunctive statements asserting two alternatives cannot be true together. Venn diagrams are introduced to visually represent categorical statements using circles for classes
This document discusses the concepts of judgment and proposition in logic. It defines judgment as a mental act of affirming or denying a relationship between two concepts. A proposition is the verbal expression of a judgment. Judgments can be categorical or hypothetical. Categorical propositions relate two terms and can be affirmative or negative. A valid judgment requires thorough understanding of concepts and an objective perception of their relationship. Reasoning involves making inferences, deducing conclusions from premises through immediate or mediate logic. Deductive reasoning proceeds from universal to particular while inductive reasoning proceeds from particular to universal. A categorical syllogism is a three-part argument using deductive reasoning with three terms and two premises leading to a conclusion.
This document provides an overview of categorical propositions in logic. It defines categorical propositions as unconditional judgments that express an affirmed or denied relationship between a subject and predicate term. The document outlines the key elements of categorical propositions, including subject, copula, predicate, and quantifiers. It also discusses the logical form of categorical propositions and how to reduce propositions to their basic subject-copula-predicate structure. Finally, it introduces the four types of categorical propositions - A, E, I, and O - based on their quantity and quality.
The document discusses different types of propositions including:
1. Categorical propositions which directly attribute a predicate to a subject.
2. Multiple propositions which combine two or more subjects and predicates.
3. Modal propositions which modify the copula to indicate how necessarily, possibly, or contingently the predicate belongs to the subject.
This document discusses different types of logical syllogisms:
1. Hypothetical syllogism uses a conditional premise and categorical conclusions. There are three types of hypothetical propositions: conditional, disjunctive, and conjunctive.
2. Conditional syllogism uses a conditional premise and its valid forms are modus ponens and modus tollens.
3. Disjunctive syllogism uses a disjunctive premise and its valid forms are ponendo tollens and tollendo ponens.
4. Conjunctive syllogism uses a conjunctive premise stating two choices cannot be true together.
It provides examples and
Propositions can take three forms: categorical, hypothetical, or modal. This document focuses on categorical propositions, which make a direct statement about the relationship between a subject and predicate term. There are four types of categorical propositions based on their quality (affirmative or negative) and quantity (universal or particular): A propositions are universal and affirmative, E propositions are universal and negative, I propositions are particular and affirmative, and O propositions are particular and negative. The distribution of a term depends on the proposition's quality and quantity - universal propositions distribute the subject term, while negative propositions distribute the predicate term.
Judgment and propositions are important concepts in logic. Judgment is an act of the mind asserting or denying a relationship between two concepts. A proposition expresses a judgment as a declarative sentence. There are different types of propositions including categorical and non-categorical. A categorical proposition uses a subject, predicate, and copula, and can be affirmative or negative in quality and universal or particular in quantity. The subject and predicate terms of a proposition have specific universal or particular quantities depending on the type of proposition.

A categorical proposition uses a subject, predicate, and copula, and can be affirmative or negative in quality and universal or particular in quantity. The subject and predicate terms of a proposition have specific universal or particular quantities depending on the type of proposition.
Propositions are the basic units of logic and language that can be either true or false. There are several types of propositions:
- Categorical propositions make a claim about a subject and predicate, and can be universal, particular, affirmative, or negative.
- Hypothetical propositions state conditions and possibilities using "if-then" clauses, with the antecedent as the condition and consequent as the possibility.
- Disjunctive propositions present alternatives using "either-or", and can be strict if the possibilities exclude each other, or broad if the possibilities can both occur.
- Conjunctive propositions combine possibilities using "and" that cannot both be true simultaneously
An argument is a logical structure with premises that lead to a conclusion. Arguments can be evaluated based on validity, truth, and soundness. Validity means the conclusion follows logically from the premises. An argument is sound if it is valid and all premises are true. Inductive and deductive reasoning differ in strengths and weaknesses. Inductive relies on experience while deductive accepts fixed definitions, but may lead to apparently necessary but false conclusions. Fallacies and counterarguments should be considered when critically evaluating arguments.
This document discusses types of proposition conversion. Proposition conversion involves interchanging the subject and predicate of an original proposition without changing quantity. There are two main types: simple conversion, where the quantity stays the same, and partial (accidental) conversion, where the quantity changes. Simple conversion can be from universal to universal, particular to particular, or empty to empty propositions. Partial conversion changes the quantity, such as from universal to particular or empty to oblique. Examples are provided to illustrate each type of conversion.
Based from the book : "Logic Made Simple for Filipinos" by Florentino Timbreza here is the summary made into powerpoint of Lesson 12: The Categorical Syllogism.
It Includes:
Introduction to categorical syllogism
General Axioms of the Syllogism
Eight Syllogistic Rules
Figures and Moods of the Categorical Syllogism
Examples in these slides are our own, there were no examples derived from the book.
Here are the kinds of supposition for the underlined terms in each proposition:
1. "Tamarao" - Absolute supposition
2. "Tamarao" - Material supposition
3. "Pag-asa" - Logical supposition
The document outlines the three mental operations of reasoning: simple apprehension, judgment, and reasoning. Simple apprehension is grasping a thing without affirming or denying it. Judgment is joining two apprehended terms and affirming or denying them. Reasoning is drawing a conclusion from a set of valid premises. It then provides examples and structural features of each operation.
The document discusses the divisions of logic. There are two main divisions - traditional logic and symbolic logic. Traditional, or Aristotelian logic, uses deductive syllogisms to attain demonstrated knowledge. Symbolic logic uses symbols to analyze arguments and determine their validity. Logic can also be divided into formal logic, which examines argument structure and validity, and material logic, which considers the meaning and truth of concepts in arguments. Language has three basic functions - informative, which communicates information; expressive, which expresses emotions; and directive, which causes or prevents actions through commands, requests, and recommendations.
This document discusses reasoning and inference. It defines reasoning as a mental process of inferring the agreement or disagreement of two ideas based on their relation to a common third idea. There are two methods of reasoning: induction and deduction. Inference refers to drawing conclusions from given propositions. There are two types of inference - immediate and mediate. Immediate inference draws directly from one proposition to another. Mediate inference involves reasoning through multiple steps. The document also discusses various logical rules and relationships between categorical propositions like conversion, obversion, and opposition.
Here are the specific kinds of supposition for the terms in each proposition:
1. "Tamarao" - Essential supposition
2. "Tamarao" - Material supposition
3. "Pag-asa" - Logical supposition
4. "Pag-asa" - Material supposition
The document discusses categorical syllogisms and logical fallacies. It defines a categorical syllogism as having two premises and one conclusion, where each proposition is in one of four forms: A, E, I, or O. It explains the terms, premises, and rules of syllogisms. It then discusses formal fallacies as errors of logical form and informal fallacies as errors of language. Examples are provided of fallacies of ambiguity, relevance, and presumption.
There are different forms of prepositions such as single-word and complex prepositions. Types of prepositions are prepositions of time, prepositions of place and prepositions of direction.
The document discusses judgment, which it defines as the act of affirming or denying something about a subject. It has two components: the comparison of two concepts and the pronouncement of their agreement or disagreement. Judgment results in propositions that express the relationship between a subject and its attributes. Reasoning is described as advancing to new truths or judgments through the use of prior judgments. The two methods of reasoning are induction, reasoning from specific examples to general principles, and deduction, reasoning from universal principles to specific conclusions.
This document defines and explains categorical syllogisms. It discusses the key elements of categorical syllogisms including premises, terms, and rules governing validity. Categorical syllogisms are logical arguments with three terms and two premises that lead to a conclusion. The major premise contains the major term, minor premise contains the minor term, and the conclusion is derived from the premises. There are rules regarding the terms, quality of propositions, and quantity of propositions that must be followed for a syllogism to be valid. Fallacies can occur if these rules are violated.
The document discusses various logical fallacies and their definitions. It begins by explaining the origins of the word "fallacy" and provides some background. It then proceeds to define and give examples of several common fallacies, including ad hominem, post hoc ergo propter hoc, slippery slope, hasty generalization, and argumentum ad populum. It concludes with reviewing the definitions of some fallacies and introducing new ones such as begging the question and red herring.
The document discusses the theory of deduction and categorical propositions. It explains that Aristotelian logic focuses on arguments with categorical propositions that relate classes or categories to each other. There are four standard forms of categorical propositions - universal affirmative (A), universal negative (E), particular affirmative (I), and particular negative (O). Each relates the subject and predicate classes in a different way. For example, an A proposition states that all members of the subject class are members of the predicate class, while an O proposition states that at least one member of the subject class is not a member of the predicate class.
Analysis - Inductive and Deductive ArgumentsAlwyn Lau
The document discusses deductive and inductive arguments. It defines deductive arguments as trying to prove conclusions with inescapable logic, while inductive arguments claim conclusions are probable or likely given the premises. Common patterns of deductive reasoning include hypothetical syllogisms, categorical syllogisms, elimination arguments, and arguments based on definitions. Common patterns of inductive reasoning include generalization, prediction, appeals to authority, causal reasoning, statistics, and analogy.
The document discusses the structure of predicates and their components. It defines a predicate as having a verb component, which can be a single verb or a more complex structure centered around a verb. The subject and predicate of a sentence can each be a single word, phrase, or syntactic structure such as modification, complementation, or coordination. The predicate consists of verbs and their properties like person, tense, voice, and modifiers or complements. Complements have a close semantic relationship to the verb, while adjuncts freely modify it.
The story is about a boy who encounters Minggay Awok, an old woman rumored to be a witch, in a river. Although afraid due to the rumors, the boy accepts her help in catching shrimp. However, upon learning her name is Minggay Awok, he runs away in fear, believing the rumors. The themes are about not judging based on rumors and appearances alone, and the need for proof before making accusations.
This document discusses the concept of judgment in philosophy. It defines judgment as the mental process of comparing two ideas and determining if they agree or disagree. There are several steps in the judgment process: apprehending concepts, juxtaposing ideas, comparing them, making a mental predication of their (non)identity, and potentially expressing this as a written or oral proposition. Categorical propositions directly affirm or deny something in subject-copula-predicate form, while other types of propositions include conditionals and disjunctions. The document also discusses reducing propositions to standard logical form.
WEEK 1 Affirming and Negating Words and Expressions.pptxAprilJoyMangurali1
Here is a possible argument on the topic using words and expressions to indicate agreement or disagreement:
I agree that social media can be used as a place to freely express ourselves by posting various content online. However, sharing personal issues on social media is not always appropriate. While social media allows us to connect with others and get support, posting private matters publicly can have negative consequences. Some personal issues are best discussed with close friends and family instead of broadcasting to all of one's social media connections. Furthermore, oversharing personal details online can make oneself vulnerable if the wrong people access such private information. While social media is a useful tool for communication, one must be discerning about what type of content is suitable to post publicly versus what should remain private.

This document discusses methods for measuring attitudes through scales. It defines attitude and describes the characteristics and assumptions related to measuring attitudes. Two major methods are described: Thurstone's equal-appearing intervals method and Likert's method of summated ratings. Both methods involve collecting statements, sorting them, selecting statements for the final scale, and determining reliability and validity. The document also discusses analyzing and interpreting attitude scale data and limitations in measuring attitudes.
This document discusses giving and receiving feedback. It defines feedback as information about past events that influences future events in a loop. Feedback should be a learning opportunity, not punitive. There are three ways to conduct feedback - asking for it, receiving it, and giving it. When asking for feedback, choose a trusted peer and specific examples to discuss. When receiving feedback, listen openly without getting defensive. When giving feedback, focus on observable behaviors and suggestions, not judgments, and make it timely, specific and descriptive. The goal is mutual understanding and growth.
Motivational interviewing is a counseling technique used to help patients resolve ambivalence about behavior change. It involves collaboration, listening more than educating, and respecting patient autonomy. The goal is to enhance a patient's confidence in their ability to change by developing discrepancy between their current and desired behaviors, avoiding confrontation, and supporting self-efficacy. Key aspects include expressing empathy, exploring ambivalence, and avoiding arguments.
This slide corresponds with Wrench, McCroskey, and Richmond's (2008) Human Communication in Everyday Life: Explanations and Applications published by Allyn and Bacon.
This document discusses attitudes and how they can be measured. It defines attitude as a set of emotions, beliefs, and behaviors toward an object, person, thing, or event. Attitudes are influenced by experience and upbringing. While enduring, attitudes can also change over time. Several methods for measuring attitudes are described, including Likert scales, semantic differential scales, Bogardus social distance scales, and Thurstone scales. These scales aim to quantify attitudes in a standardized way and provide insights into people's feelings, beliefs, and level of acceptance toward various topics.

This lecture continues with the discussion of rhetorical devices.
Downplayers
A downplayer is a word that is inserted in a sentence that undermines something that is being discussed. Let’s take a look at two
sentences that mean the same thing in their deepest structure, but that have radically different connotations due to one word.
“Brent got a B on his exam.”
“Brent only got a B on his exam.”
By inserting the word “only,” the person saying sentence two has downplayed Brent’s achievement. Most people would be
happy, or at least satisfied, with a grade of B on an exam. However, the second sentence seems to diminish Brent’s
accomplishment by indicating that a grade of B on the exam does not meet his or her expectations of Brent. You can think of
downplayers as using scare quotes “” in verbal language. Let’s look at some more examples.
“Yeah, Ellen just got her ‘degree’,”
In this case, the person seems to indicate ...
The document provides guidance on effective persuasion by targeting the needs and motivations of the audience. It discusses how to identify an audience's needs using Maslow's hierarchy and then structure an argument that appeals to those needs. The document recommends knowing the audience well, focusing on what matters most to them, and staying consistent with facts and values to engage their support.
Critical listening involves using reason to make logical judgments about what is heard. It includes listening for appropriate tone, distinguishing between facts and opinions, understanding denotation versus connotation, identifying euphemisms, recognizing self-important language, and avoiding logical fallacies. Logical fallacies are errors in reasoning that can mislead listeners. Examples of common fallacies discussed are hasty generalizations, begging the question, non sequiturs, testimonials, bandwagon techniques, card stacking, false comparisons, and emotional appeals.

The document discusses the process of research and preparation for argumentation and debate. It outlines various methods for gathering information from different sources, including consulting dictionaries, books, newspapers, and experts. It emphasizes the importance of thoroughly researching both sides of an issue. It also discusses different systems for organizing research materials, such as notebooks or index cards, and the need to properly cite sources. The goal of research is to collect facts, data, statistics, and inferences to both establish one's own argument and refute opposing arguments.

If you disagree with your friend who thinks life is about putting oneself first as much as possible whenever possible, how would you persuade your friend that life is not a selfish or self-indulgent pursuit? How do you justify that your own actions are altruistic, and to what end do you pursue acts in the interest of others? Do you do so with the same passion as you do endeavors that fulfill a want or a need in your own life? Once you have entertained the above questions, carve out a thesis statement that states clearly whether or not "put yourself first" is a good approach to life and why.
· Early in your essay, describe how you understand "putting yourself first". It's important to define how you view this way of life before either advocating for it or rejecting it.

· In drafting this essay, I recommend that you also read section 8-3 of The Big Questions and the 1000 Word Philosophy link that I have posted below. Scroll, scroll.
· How many sources do I need to cite?
· You
must site some sources. See the Evidence component of the Critical Thinking Rubric. Though there is no minimum number of cited sources beyond our textbook, sometimes you need to refer to other source material in making your argument. Whenever you discuss content that should be backed up with a source, be sure to incorporate accurate sources and cite them.
· What format and style of citation should I use?
Use MLA. Academic philosophers use Chicago Manual. If you continue studies in philosophy, you will learn Chicago Manual; however, fo.

El Puerto de Algeciras continúa un año más como el más eficiente del continente europeo y vuelve a situarse en el “top ten” mundial, según el informe The Container Port Performance Index 2023 (CPPI), elaborado por el Banco Mundial y la consultora S&P Global.
El informe CPPI utiliza dos enfoques metodológicos diferentes para calcular la clasificación del índice: uno administrativo o técnico y otro estadístico, basado en análisis factorial (FA). Según los autores, esta dualidad pretende asegurar una clasificación que refleje con precisión el rendimiento real del puerto, a la vez que sea estadísticamente sólida. En esta edición del informe CPPI 2023, se han empleado los mismos enfoques metodológicos y se ha aplicado un método de agregación de clasificaciones para combinar los resultados de ambos enfoques y obtener una clasificación agregada.
