==Etymology==
[http://nordan.daynal.org/wiki/index.php?title=English#ca._1100-1500_.09THE_MIDDLE_ENGLISH_PERIOD Middle English], from Anglo-French, from [[Latin]] conclusion-, conclusio, from concludere
*Date: [http://www.wikipedia.org/wiki/14th_Century 14th century]
==Definitions==
*1 a : a [[reasoned]] [[judgment]] : [[inference]]
:b : the [[necessary]] [[effect|consequence]] of two or more propositions taken as premises; especially : the inferred proposition of a syllogism
*2 : the last part of something: as a : result, outcome
:b plural : [[trial]] of strength or [[skill]] —used in the phrase try conclusions
:c : a final summation
:d : the final [[decision]] in a [[law]] case
:e : the final part of a pleading in [[law]]
==Description==
A '''conclusion''' is a proposition which is reached after considering the [[evidence]], [[arguments]] or premises. Conclusions are a [[fundamental]] feature in [[academic]] or [[research ]] [[work]].
In [[research]] and [[experimentation]], conclusions are determinations made by [[studying]] the results of previous [[work]]. [[Logic]] is the [[discipline]] that studies the rules and procedures that [[Discernment|distinguish]] correct [[reasoning]] (valid) from incorrect (invalid). [[Arguments]] (syllogisms) are movements of [[thought]] by which to extract something (perhaps) unfamiliar from something known. Arguments consist of propositions (or Juci). The propositions that serve as departure (the known) are called premises, and the proposition that derives from these premises is called the conclusion. [[Arguments]] can be [[inductive]] or [[deductive]]. [[Tradition]]al [[logic]] (Aristotelian) is mostly [[devoted]] to the [[analysis]] of [[deduction]] and fallacies (invalid and misleading arguments). (See Richard Pootiz Ortiz, Logic, Quito: Publiconti, 1994).
