For the following defective definition, indicate if it is too broad, too narrow, circular, or some combination of the three.  If it is too broad or too narrow, demonstrate the problem with an example of what the proposed definition wrongly applies to or fails to apply to.  If it is circular, explain what you are thinking. (4 points) A fork is a tool with two or more steel extensions used for picking things up.

(4 points) A hypothetical syllogism is a kind of deductive argument with two premises, at least one of which is in if-then form, where the conclusion follows validly from the premises.

(4 points) A bird is a vertebrate animal capable of flight.

Consider the following example of inductive reasoning: The Docking Institute of Public Affairs at Fort Hays State University conducted their 2019 Kansas Speaks fall survey from August 26 to October 14, 2019.  A random sample of 352 adult residents of Kansas age 18 and older were surveyed by telephone (landline and cell phone) to assess their attitudes and opinions regarding various issues of interest to Kansas citizens.  This was a 16% response rate, meaning that 2200 calls were attempted.  Among the data generated by the survey, 88.1% of the respondents supported “requiring background checks on all gun sales” (73.5% “strongly support,” and 14.6% “somewhat support”).  They concluded that if all adult Kansas residents were surveyed, it is 95% probable that these findings (88.1% in favor; 73.5 % strongly, 14.6% somewhat) would be found, with a margin of error of plus or minus 5.2%.  In other words, they were highly confident that support among Kansans for requiring background checks on all gun sales fell in the range of 82.9% to 93.3%. Given the following modification of the argument, indicate two things: (1) if it strengthens the argument (makes it more likely that the conclusion is true), weakens the argument (makes this less likely), or has no effect, and (2) why you think this is so. People were contacted by email instead of telephone, and invited to respond to an online poll the link to which they could forward to anyone they know who would be interested in completing the survey.

For the six years prior to the survey, Kansans had polled as consistently against requiring background checks for all gun sales, primarily because laws of this sort would punish law-abiding gun owners who might want to sell their firearms to other law-abiding gun owners.

(4 points) An argument is a series of true claims (the premises) offered in support of a further claim (the conclusion).

(4 points) A definition of a term is a claim that indicates something true about each and every thing to which the term applies.

For the following argument, do three things: (1) identify the terms of the argument, assigning them symbols; (2) set the syllogism out in standard AEIO form, marking the distributed terms with asterisks; and (3) say whether or not the argument is valid, explaining how one of the validity rules is violated if it is invalid.  If the argument is an enthymeme, complete it, if possible, to make come out valid.  (2 points for the symbolization, 4 points for standard form, 4 points for the evaluation, 10 points total) Some studious people aren’t friendly.  But people are friendly if they value other people.  So some people who value others aren’t studious.
