Premise:
Does the argument have any bounds in a logical argument?
As someone is building an argument a premise is an unstated assumption on which the argument is grounded



Probability:
Can the argument stand up to someone trying to disprove it?
Likelihood
conclusion
statements about human behavior==>common ideas that people share

Inductive reasoning:
movement from specific cases/examples to general principles


Deductive reasoning: Using different pieces of evidence to build an argument
Movement from general principles(class of items) to specific cases. If premises (assumptions,
common beliefs) are true then conclusion about specific case is true

Enthymeme: Rhetorical argument founded on assumptions that remain unstated
