  44. 44reasoningthe process by which people generate and evaluate arguments and reach conclusions about them
  45. 45formal reasoningthe process of following a set of rigorous procedures for reaching valid conclusions
  46. 46algorithma systematic procedure that cannot fail to produce a correct solution to a problem if a solution exists logic a system of formulas for drawing valid conclusions
  47. 47syllogisman argument made up of two propositions, called premises, and a conclusion based on those premises
  48. 48informal reasoningthe process of evaluating a conclusion, theory or course of action on the basis of the believability of evidence
  49. 49heuristica time-saving mental shortcut used in reasoning
  50. 50anchoring heuristic (anchoring bias)a mental shortcut that involves basing judgements on existing information
  51. 51representativeness heuristica mental shortcut that involves judging whether something belongs in a given class on the basis of its similarity to other members of that class
