Stim: without trust there cannot be meaningful emotional connection to another human being
H: Happiness, MEC: meaningful emotional connection, I: isolated
Premise 1: Because there is a group 3 and a group 4 indicator I would have to treat one as a negation. I'm going for the group 3 translation (without) and using the group 4 indicator (no) as the negation: T --> MEC
"Without" signifies necessary condition and negates the sufficient condition. So Premise 1 should be translated as "MEC -> T" ("without trust there cannot be meaningful emotional connection to another human being").
With the corrected premise, the argument would look something like this:
P1: MEC -> T
P2: ~I -> MEC
C: H -> T
The missing premise would be "H -> ~I," whose contrapositive is answer choice (A).
There's a forum rule against posting direct quotes from PTs, by the way.
Thank you for clearing it up for me, and my mistake on the post.
