QuestionWhat is the reasoning called when you form general ideas from experiences: A. conjunction B. conduction C. induction D. deduction?
Studdy Solution
STEP 1
Assumptions1. We are looking for a term that describes the process of forming general ideas and rules based on experiences and observations.
STEP 2
We evaluate each of the given options in the context of the problem.
STEP 3
Option A "Conjunction" is a term used in logic and mathematics to denote an operation that gives the value true if both of its operands are true. This does not fit the context of the problem.
STEP 4
Option B "Conduction" is a term used in physics to describe the transfer of heat or electricity through a substance. This also does not fit the context of the problem.
STEP 5
Option C "Induction" is a method of reasoning in which one makes broad generalizations from specific observations. This seems to fit the context of the problem.
STEP 6
Option D "eduction" is a method of reasoning in which one draws specific conclusions from general principles. This is the opposite of what we are looking for.
STEP 7
Based on our evaluation of the options, the correct answer is option C Induction.
The form of reasoning where you form general ideas and rules based on your experiences and observations is called induction.
