It draws inferences from observations in order to make generalizations.
SOLUTION:
Inductive reasoning, or induction, is reasoning from a specific case or cases and deriving a general rule. It draws inferences from observations in order to make generalizations.

Induction is usually described as moviing from the specific to the general,, while deduction begins with the general and ends with the
specific..

Arguments based on laws, rules and acceptted principles are generally used ffor Deductive Reasoning.. Observations tend to be used for
Inductive Arguments..

Inference can be done in four stages:

Observation: collect facts, without bias.
Analysis: classify the facts, identifying patterns o of regularity.
Inference: From the patterns, infer generalizations about the relations between the facts.

Confirmation: Testing the inference through further observation.
In an argument, you might:

Derive a general rule in an accepted area and then apply the rule in the area where you want the person to behave.
Give them lots of detail, then explain what it all means.
Talk about the benefits of the parts and only get to the overall benefits later.
Take what has happened and give a plausible explanation for why it has happened.
Inductive arguments can include:

Part-to-whole: where the whole is assumed to be like individual parts (only bigger).

Extrapolations: where areas beyond the area of study are assumed to be like the studied area.

Predictions: where the future is assumed to be like the past.
:::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::
A distinction between forms of social identity formation in small interactive groups is investigated. In groups in which a common identity is available or given, norms for individual behavior may be deduced from group properties (deductive identity). In groups in which interpersonal relations are central, a group identity may also be induced from individual group members' contributions, making individuality and individual distinctiveness a defining feature of the group (inductive identity). Two studies examined the prediction that depersonalization produced by anonymity has opposite effects for groups in which social identity has been induced or deduced. Results confirmed the prediction that depersonalization increases social influence in groups whose identity was more deductive. In contrast, depersonalization decreases social influence in inductive identity groups. Implications for the role of social identity in small groups are discussed

Inductive reasoning is the process of reasoning in which the premises of an argument are believed to support the conclusion but do not ensure it. Deductive reasoning is the kind of reasoning in which the conclusion is necessitated by, or reached from, previously known facts (the premises). hope that helps!My point of view is Inductive reasoning
