List of valid argument forms

Of the many and varied argument forms that can possibly be constructed, only very few are valid argument forms. In order to evaluate these forms, statements are put into logical form. Logical form replaces any sentences or ideas with letters to remove any bias from content and allow one to evaluate the argument without any bias due to its subject matter. Being a valid argument does not necessarily mean the conclusion will be true. It is valid because if the premises are true, then the conclusion has to be true. This can be proven for any valid argument form using a truth table which shows that there is no situation in which there are all true premises and a false conclusion. (Wikipedia).

Analyzing an argument for validity

Learning Objectives: 1) Analyze an argument to determine it's logical structure 2) Decide if the logical form of an argument is valid or invalid The main argument forms are Modus Ponens, Modus Tollens, Generalization, Specialization, and Contradiction. To see more on each of these, check

Logical Arguments - Modus Ponens & Modus Tollens

Modus Ponens and Modus Tollens are two logical argument forms. In either case, these have two premises and a conclusion. These argument forms are called valid, which means that if you accept the hypotheses, then it is valid to conclude the conclusion. This is distinct from having a sound a

Testing Syllogisms by Counterexample // Lesson 24 [INTRODUCTORY LOGIC]

Although it can feel like there are infinitely many kinds of categorical syllogisms, in fact there are only 256, and of those, only 40 are valid. So how can we confirm which ones are valid and which ones are invalid, especially if we're not already familiar with the terms of the argument?
