Examples of deductive logic?

This is a concept made more complex than necessary. The two complementary processes of inductive vs. deductive are very simply and easily understood. Consider the number series; 3, 5, 7, 'x', 11, 13, 15, 'y' Simple inspection shows this to be a series of 'odd' numbers, what a mathematician would call 'n+1'. Inductive vs. deductive simply describes the 'type' of reasoning used to determine either 'x' or 'y'. Because it lies 'inside' the other data points, the 'deduction' that 'x'=9 is reached by deductive logic, or, deductive reasoning. We 'deduce' x=9. 'y', on the other hand, lies 'outside' the data, i.e. we don't have a '19' on the 'right' of the 'y' to help us 'deduce' the answer. Much riskier than deductive logic/reasoning, we are forced to use less evidence than we did for the 'x' case. This method is called 'inductive logic/reasoning'. For those who've been exposed to just a little math, this process might seem similar to the dual processes of interpolation and extrapolation...that's because...they are. Identical. Smile, nod and thank those who try to convince you there's 'more to it than THAT!!!'. There isn't. 'Guessing' about anything from 'inside' the data = Deduction/Deductive Reasoning/Deductive Logic = fairly 'safe' procedure = (also) Interpolation. 'Guessing' about anything from 'outside' the data = Induction/Inductive Reasoning/Inductive Logic = slightly riskier procedure = (also) Extrapolation Example of Deductive Logic/Reasoning; Sign directly above two identical unmarked doors, saying 'Customer Restrooms'. Man exits 'left' door. Another man exits 'left' door. Person, with 'hoodie' up, leaves 'left' door. Fourth person, man, exits 'left' door. Deduction? Third person, of unknown gender, exiting 'left' door, was a man. Example of Inductive Logic/Reasoning (same scenario); 'Right' door is the 'ladies'. It really is just that simple.

What is deduction and induction?

In logic, we often refer to the two broad methods of reasoning as the deductive and inductive approaches.Deductive reasoning works from the more general to the more specific. Sometimes this is informally called a "top-down" approach. We might begin with thinking up a theoryabout our topic of interest. We then narrow that down into more specifichypotheses that we can test. We narrow down even further when we collect observations to address the hypotheses. This ultimately leads us to be able to test the hypotheses with specific data -- a confirmation (or not) of our original theories.Inductive reasoning works the other way, moving from specific observations to broader generalizations and theories. Informally, we sometimes call this a "bottom up" approach (please note that it's "bottom up" and not"bottoms up" which is the kind of thing the bartender says to customers when he's trying to close for the night!). In inductive reasoning, we begin with specific observations and measures, begin to detect patterns and regularities, formulate some tentative hypotheses that we can explore, and finally end up developing some general conclusions or theories.These two methods of reasoning have a very different "feel" to them when you're conducting research. Inductive reasoning, by its very nature, is more open-ended and exploratory, especially at the beginning. Deductive reasoning is more narrow in nature and is concerned with testing or confirming hypotheses. Even though a particular study may look like it's purely deductive (e.g., an experiment designed to test the hypothesized effects of some treatment on some outcome), most social research involves both inductive and deductive reasoning processes at some time in the project. In fact, it doesn't take a rocket scientist to see that we could assemble the two graphs above into a single circular one that continually cycles from theories down to observations and back up again to theories. Even in the most constrained experiment, the researchers may observe patterns in the data that lead them to develop new theories.
