Hey, so I would appreciate literally any answer, but I thought for SA we do P->C. To be fair, the explanations do make sense to me. However, I barely see the P->C thing going on now. I thought the answer choices should be linked to the conclusion, but it seems like right now we're just filling in the gaps. So I want to know how exactly to approach these questions. Or, when do I know when I can use P->C? Any suggestions and tips are GREATLY appreciated.
@beneley2k reread the stimulus and just insert the right answer choice after the second sentence. It clicked for me as soon as I did that.
It's hard to understand alone because it's stating an assumption that seems so obvious you wouldn't think you'd have to add it but if you read it in that order it'll click.
This section is on the harder side of concepts we've learned but I'm trying to be so positive about all the little (and big) wins--when those happen. Right now, I'm stoked that I really understood the power of "unlikely" in this drill during my analysis and the role it plays in figuring it out. Double guessed myself and picked D first, but it's so great to know that my brain is ACTUALLY getting it. Now, I just need to trust my gut.
I only guessed B because it connected a premise to the conclusion but I really didn't understand what was being asked, really difficult question but after doing so many, have some of the patterns recognized where I can more or less see what the answer choice should look like
Tried hard to trust intuition and move a little faster on this one. B felt correct as soon as I read it, but I kept going and got tricked into D. For some reason B started to feel like it was mixing up conditions. As soon as I got to BR, I realized this is not hard conditional reasoning because of the "likely" aspect, so B is very clearly correct. Need to remember to soften on conditionals when the stim is written in this way.
I am not understanding how to determine how to write the premises correctly. Why can it not be that inclination to morally judge decreases -> as knowledge of history increases. Am I missing something? Is "as" what would be considered a group 1 indicator.
How would you know to map it in reverse order if you were seeing this question for the first time? I got this question right because the answer linked the two premises that weren't in the conclusion, but I didn't actually understand why that was the missing link. #help
@mariekadent I have a similar problem where I am getting these questions right, but it takes me way too long. How am I going to get it down to 1 minute?

When you see you got it right and pray it was a 4 or 5 star problem.
At first I balked at "Inclination decreases as knowledge increases" not being causal.
Seems causal to me ... but, strictly speaking, this is only describing correlation between two things. There is no causal relationship defined here.
Causation would look like this: "An increase in knowledge causes/results in a decrease in inclination"
@Nathan1138 good eye. same thing happened to me but as I reread the stim, it made sense
The diagram is awesome. But how are we supposed to break this down and answer in 1:46
Isolate the conclusion first. Then premises.
C: increased H, less likely MT
P1:
C&U MB-> less likely H as MTP2: increase H -> less likely judge HB
Where are the links and gaps? There is no connection between "C&U MB" and "judge HB" anywhere. Looks like a premise involving those is in order.
Enter answer B.
was easier to answer without diagramming tbh
i got destroyed by this question. but after watching the video, i understand. im so happy i understand. PTL
I'm so lost. This is the first time I've felt like I hit a mental brick wall.

took me 3.5 min but i got it right
I love you J. Y.
Someone needs handwriting lessons ASAP!
+4:52 to get the correct answer but a win is a win

took my 6 mins but i did itttt!
hated this question heavy
this section is going to kill me
I was stuck between b and d for so long and at the last min switched my answer from b to d. I keep overthinking and not trusting my gut ugh
@lindsayo did the same thing. who has time to map all of this chaos out too?? fml

I genuinely am getting more lost as I go forward each section

@angantous I have the same question as well.
omg yay! I got it right, this is the first one after like 8 questions. UGHHH
it took me 10 mins ;/
