There are two types of reasoning‚ inductive and deductive. The primary difference between the two is that inductive reasoning automatically allows for an appeal to probability‚ the assumption that what could happen will happen‚ while deductive reasoning considers this a logical fallacy. Thus for the purposes

2.3 Ishikawa diagram In 1960s‚ Professor Kaoru Ishikawa has introduced Ishikawa diagram. This diagram also called fishbone diagram or cause and effect diagram (Ishikawa 1976). Since this diagram is inception‚ it has gained tremendous of popularity to identify the root cause of the variety of problems (Hossen et al. 2017). Besides that‚ Ishikawa diagram often called as fishbone diagram is because it can help in the brainstorming to determine the possible cause of a problem and also sort the ideas

FISHBONE DIAGRAM The cause-and-effect diagram was initially developed by Japanese quality expert Professor Kaoru Ishikawa. In fact‚ these diagrams are often called Ishikawa diagrams; they are also called fishbone charts for reasons that will become obvious when we look at an example. Cause-and-effect diagrams are usually constructed by a quality team. For example‚ the team might consist of service designers‚ production workers‚ inspectors‚ supervisors‚ quality engineers‚ managers‚ sales representatives

A Venn diagram is a drawing‚ in which circular areas represent groups of items usually sharing common properties. The drawing consists of two or more circles‚ each representing a specific group or set. This process of visualizing logical relationships was devised by John Venn (1834-1923). Each Venn diagram begins with a rectangle representing theuniversal set. Then each set of values in the problem is represented by a circle. Any values that belong to more than one set will be placed in

Logical Fallacies Logical fallacies are errors in reasoning‚ defects that weaken arguments. At first they might seem correct. but if they are examined closely‚ it is obvious that they are incorrect. Critical thinkers recognize these fallacies in newspapers‚ advertisements‚ and other places so they can make good decisions in all areas of their lives.
