103: Introduction to Logic
Answer Choices: a. No evidence is presented that Aikens is biased. b. This answer is an attempt to avoid the question. Answer c is correct not especially because authorities in a field can render valuable important information about the field, but in logic, arguments are to be evaluated on their own structure and import. d. Even authorities can make mistakes. Interesting questions occur when authorities in the field disagree. e. If logic were this subjective, communication would have no secure basis and intersubjective agreement would be impossible. Evaluation: One would expect most students in lower-level classes to emphasize the bias the Mr. Aikens might have. The answers to this question seem consistent across the two disciplines and classes. |
