LAZY ARGUING Sea World’s attempt to refute the documentary “Blackfish” was so disappointing. It did not just fail; it crashed and burned. “Blackfish” is a documentary that shows the psychological and physical harm Sea World is doing to their Killer whales by keeping them in a confined space.

studies and other things for standardized instruments, however, when looking at the whole using several methods in research will provide better clearer results and instead of focusing on just one method maybe more than one should be used because the validity and reliability may have more conclusive…

Are The Reliability And Validity Of The Instruments Described? Did The Researcher Examine The Reliability And Validity Of The Instruments For The Present Sample? The reliability and validity of the instrument (CWEQ-II) that was used to measure nurse empowerment shows a construct validity that is substantiated in a confirmatory factor analysis that revealed a good fit of the hypothesized factor structure…

126 was found, this shows that the items on the scale are measuring the same thing. Validity analysis consists of two sub-sections internal validity and external validity, internal validity refers to the degree in which variables such as extraneous and confounding variables does not affect the outcome of the test and external validity is the degree in which the experiment can be applied to the real world. (validity and reliability, 2016) the data was screened for parametric assumptions, it was…

local dog shelter.” Is this argument logically valid? Validity can only be proven if it takes the form that makes it impossible for the premises to be true and the conclusion to be false. If the argument is valid it is guaranteed that the conclusion is true. When looking at the above argument does that prove whether or not those are morally right or wrong? To do this, look at the argument first and see if it meets the conditionals of validity. If so, you have a sound argument. The argument above…

0236566 In this squib, I criticize Norcross’ argument for the claim that Fred would still be acting immoral if he hired someone else to torture the puppies. I then argue that the second premise of Norcross’ target argument is false by providing an objection. My objection shows that there is a situation in which the action itself is immoral, but hiring someone to do it is not immoral. Now I will present Norcross’ target argument in standard form, for the claim that hiring someone else to torture…

Following the correct guidelines for significant figures is crucial in reporting accurate data that is reflective of the accuracy of the means used to collect it. It follows that the answer to any calculation can be no more nor any less precise than the least precise piece of data involved in the calculation. In this course, we will follow a set of rules meant to a) provide consistency to our significant figures and rounding and b) provide answers that agree, in accuracy and precision, with our…

Differentiating Between Valid and Invalid Forms of Propositional Arguments Pages 164 – 175 of the textbook focuses on assessing valid forms versus invalid forms of propositional forms. It provides a brief description of what would be considered a valid argument and invalid argument. A valid argument passes the proper form test, while an invalid argument fails it. Five of the nine most used propositional arguments discusses are valid arguments. These valid forms include: the denying a disjunct,…

Arguments are when one offers a premise (or premises) to support a conclusion. Two main methods of support are joint and branching. Joint support is when related premises support the conclusion. On their own, each premise is not enough to constitute a valid argument for the conclusion so they have to work together in order for the conclusion to be reached. Branching support is when there are multiple, unrelated premises that lead to the same conclusion. These two types are very different but…
