From: "Human Potential & Development."
Split Justification: Development fundamentally involves both our inner landscape (**Internal World**) and our interaction with everything outside us (**External World**). (Ref: Subject-Object Distinction)..
2
From: "Internal World (The Self)"
Split Justification: The Internal World involves both mental processes (**Cognitive Sphere**) and physical experiences (**Somatic Sphere**). (Ref: Mind-Body Distinction)
3
From: "Cognitive Sphere"
Split Justification: Cognition operates via deliberate, logical steps (**Analytical Processing**) and faster, intuitive pattern-matching (**Intuitive/Associative Processing**). (Ref: Dual Process Theory)
4
From: "Analytical Processing"
Split Justification: Analytical thought engages distinct symbolic systems: abstract logic and mathematics (**Quantitative/Logical Reasoning**) versus structured language (**Linguistic/Verbal Reasoning**).
5
From: "Linguistic/Verbal Reasoning"
Split Justification: This dichotomy separates the receptive aspects of linguistic reasoning, involving the understanding and interpretation of spoken or written language, from the expressive aspects, which involve the formulation and production of spoken or written language. These are distinct, fundamental processes that together encompass all facets of verbal reasoning.
6
From: "Verbal Expression"
Split Justification: This dichotomy separates the construction of logically sound arguments (Structuring an Argument) from the use of stylistic and persuasive language to influence an audience (Rhetorical Technique).
7
From: "Structuring an Argument"
Split Justification: An argument's structure can be based on reasoning from general principles to a guaranteed specific conclusion (Deductive Structuring) or from specific observations to a probable generalization (Inductive Structuring).
8
From: "Inductive Structuring"
Split Justification: This dichotomy differentiates between structuring an argument to derive a broad, often universal, principle or law from specific instances (Universal Generalization) versus structuring an argument to conclude a specific fact, cause, or prediction about a particular event or state based on accumulated evidence (Particular Inference). These represent the two distinct types of conclusions and argument structures within inductive reasoning.
9
From: "Particular Inference"
Split Justification: This dichotomy separates two fundamental methods of inductive particular inference: deriving a conclusion for a specific instance based on observed similarities with another specific instance (analogy), versus applying a broader pattern or rule, generalized from multiple observations, to a specific instance.
10
From: "Generalizing Inference"
Split Justification: This dichotomy distinguishes between generalizations that aim to establish a universal rule or characteristic applicable to all members of a class (Universal Generalization) and those that infer a likelihood, proportion, or trend for a larger population or future events based on sampled data, acknowledging statistical uncertainty (Probabilistic Generalization). They represent the two fundamental types of inductive generalization based on the nature and scope of the inferred conclusion.
11
From: "Probabilistic Generalization"
Split Justification: This dichotomy distinguishes between probabilistic generalizations whose likelihood is formally quantified, typically through statistical or data-driven methods, and those whose likelihood is informally assessed based on qualitative observations, experience, or intuitive judgment.
12
From: "Qualitative Probabilistic Generalization"
Split Justification: This dichotomy distinguishes between qualitative probabilistic generalizations that primarily describe the observed frequency or commonality of events or patterns (Frequency-Based) and those that primarily assess the likelihood or potential of a specific event or outcome occurring (Possibility-Based). They are mutually exclusive in their focus and collectively encompass the ways in which qualitative probabilities are generalized and expressed.
