Logical Conclusions

What are logical conclusions?

Making logical conclusions means facts and details. Organizing information and evaluating the information to come to a conclusion is called logical thinking. It is important for readers to evaluate a writer’s statements and conclusions for slant and bias.

If a writer only gives the positive facts about a product, they are using slant. When you don’t have all of the facts, it is difficult to make logical conclusions. A writer may give a positive slant or a negative slant.

Bias is similar to slant. In fact, a writer may use them together. A writer uses bias when they use words that have a second meaning. They don’t give you a clear picture of the facts. For example, a writer might use the word brat to mean a child.

How do I make logical conclusions?

There are two ways of making logical conclusions. You can put the facts together to make a conclusion. This is called inductive reasoning. The second type of thinking is called deductive thinking. Deductive reasoning is like taking a puzzle with a missing piece and guessing facts about the missing piece.
