2. Three-valued logic - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Three-valued_logic

   In these truth tables, the unknown state can be thought of as neither true nor false in Kleene logic, or thought of as both true and false in Priest logic. The difference lies in the definition of tautologies. Where Kleene logic's only designated truth value is T, Priest logic's designated truth values are both T and U.

3. Validity (logic) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Validity_(logic)

   Validity of deduction is not affected by the truth of the premise or the truth of the conclusion. The following deduction is perfectly valid: All animals live on Mars. (False) All humans are animals. (True) Therefore, all humans live on Mars. (False) The problem with the argument is that it is not sound.

4. Truth table - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Truth_table

   A truth table is a structured representation that presents all possible combinations of truth values for the input variables of a Boolean function and their corresponding output values. A function f from A to F is a special relation , a subset of A×F, which simply means that f can be listed as a list of input-output pairs.

5. Material implication (rule of inference) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Material_implication_(rule...

   An example: we are given the conditional fact that if it is a bear, then it can swim. Then, all 4 possibilities in the truth table are compared to that fact. If it is a bear, then it can swim — T; If it is a bear, then it can not swim — F; If it is not a bear, then it can swim — T because it doesn’t contradict our initial fact.

6. Tautology (logic) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tautology_(logic)

   The method of truth tables illustrated above is provably correct – the truth table for a tautology will end in a column with only T, while the truth table for a sentence that is not a tautology will contain a row whose final column is F, and the valuation corresponding to that row is a valuation that does not satisfy the sentence being tested.

7. Test validity - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Test_validity

   Test validity is the extent to which a test (such as a chemical, physical, or scholastic test) accurately measures what it is supposed to measure.In the fields of psychological testing and educational testing, "validity refers to the degree to which evidence and theory support the interpretations of test scores entailed by proposed uses of tests". [1]

8. Validity (statistics) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Validity_(statistics)

   The validity of a measurement tool (for example, a test in education) is the degree to which the tool measures what it claims to measure. [3] Validity is based on the strength of a collection of different types of evidence (e.g. face validity, construct validity, etc.) described in greater detail below.

9. Propositional calculus - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Propositional_calculus

   A truth table is a semantic proof method used to determine the truth value of a propositional logic expression in every possible scenario. [93] By exhaustively listing the truth values of its constituent atoms, a truth table can show whether a proposition is true, false, tautological, or contradictory. [94] See § Semantic proof via truth tables.
