Term used by Peirce to denote arguments whose conclusions go beyond their premises (and hence amplify the scope of our beliefs). Inductive arguments and arguments to the best explanation are not deductively valid, but may yield credible conclusions. Most reasoning takes us to conclusions that go beyond our data, in ways that interest us.
Amplifiy → Ampliative
包括所有非演绎的推理形式，如Induction和Abduction
These sorts of arguments are generally called “ampliative”, because the conclusion says more than is strictly “entailed” by the premises.
