Abstract

In this paper, we formulate a procedure for assessing reasoning as it is expressed in natural arguments. The procedure is a specification of one of the three aspects of argumentation assessment distinguished in the Comprehensive Assessment Procedure for Natural Argumentation (CAPNA) (Hinton, 2021) that makes use of the argument categorisation framework of the Periodic Table of Arguments (PTA) (Wagemans, 2016, 2019, 2020c). The theoretical framework and practical application of both the CAPNA and the PTA are described, as well as the evaluation procedure that combines the two. The procedure is illustrated through an evaluation of the reasoning of two example arguments from a recently published text.

自然论证中的推理评价：一种程序方法

在本文中，我们制定了一个评估推理的程序，因为它在自然论证中表达。该程序是《自然论证综合评估程序》（CAPNA）（Hinton，2021）中论证评估的三个方面之一的规范，该程序利用了论证周期表（PTA）的论证分类框架（Wagemans，201620192020c）。介绍了CAPNA和PTA的理论框架和实际应用，以及将两者结合起来的评估程序。通过对最近发表的一篇文章中两个例子论点的推理进行评估，说明了这一过程。
