PHIL347N: Week 6 Quiz Exam Questions
With Correct Answers
1. What are the three fundamental reasoning strategies listed in the text? - answer✔a.
Comparative reasoning
b. Empirical reasoning
c. Ideological reasoning
What is comparative reasoning? On what skill is it based? - answer✔Comparative reasoning is
this-is-like that reasoning. We rely on something familiar to interpret and understand something
that is less familiar. It is based on pattern recognition.
We learned four tests for evaluating arguments: truthfulness of the premises, logical strength,
relevance, and non-circularity. How well do these tests work with respect to evaluation
comparative reasoning? Consider each of the four tests - answer✔a. The four tests of evaluating
arguments do not work well in evaluative comparative reasoning because it does not seek to
determine whether a conclusion is true or not.
b. Truth of the premises does not work because points of comparison are not connected in a way
that permits us to say one is more true than another
