Question

Given below are two statements:
Statement I: The form of inductive argument is evaluated in degrees of likelihood or probability.
Statement II: A strong inductive argument that has all the true premises, is called a “cogent” argument
In the light of the above statements, choose the most appropriate answer from the options given below:

A.

Both Statement I and Statement II are correct

B.

Both Statement I and Statement II are incorrect

C.

Statement I is correct but Statement II is incorrect

D.

Statement I is incorrect but Statement II is correct

Correct option is A

This statement is correct. Inductive arguments are evaluated in degrees of likelihood or probability. Inductive reasoning involves drawing general conclusions based on specific observations or evidence. These conclusions are not deductively certain but are assessed in terms of how likely they are to be true given the evidence.
Statement II: This statement is also correct. A strong inductive argument that has all true premises is called a "cogent" argument. A cogent argument is one where the premises provide strong support for the conclusion, making it likely to be true based on the evidence.
Therefore, both statements are correct
