Razonamiento INDUCTIVO explicado #habiaspensado
Summary
TLDRThis video script delves into the concept of inductive reasoning, a method frequently used in the scientific method. It explains how specific observations are generalized to larger groups, using the example of a study on internet habits of 2,430 Mexicans to infer the habits of the entire Mexican population.

Q & A
What is inductive reasoning?
-Inductive reasoning involves taking specific observations and generalizing them to form a broader conclusion or principle. It moves from particular instances to general conclusions.
How does inductive reasoning differ from deductive reasoning?
-Inductive reasoning goes from specific observations to general conclusions, while deductive reasoning goes from general principles to specific cases. Inductive reasoning is often described as moving from the individual to the general, whereas deductive reasoning moves from the general to the specific.
Can you provide an example of inductive reasoning from the video?
-An example from the video is studying the internet usage habits of 2,430 Mexican individuals and generalizing the findings to represent the habits of the entire population of 128 million Mexicans.
What is the main purpose of using inductive reasoning in scientific studies?
-Inductive reasoning is used in scientific studies to make generalizations or inferences about a larger population based on observations or data from a smaller, specific sample.
Why is randomness important in selecting samples for inductive reasoning?
-Randomness in sample selection is important because it helps ensure that the sample is representative of the entire population, which allows for more accurate generalizations and reduces bias in the conclusions drawn.
What is a potential limitation of inductive reasoning?
-A potential limitation of inductive reasoning is that the generalizations made are not guaranteed to be true, as they are based on a limited set of observations. There is always a possibility that the observed patterns do not hold true for the entire population.
How does the video suggest remembering the difference between inductive and deductive reasoning?
-The video suggests remembering that inductive reasoning moves from the individual to the population (specific to general), while deductive reasoning moves from the general to the specific (like from two people to one).
What is the role of patterns in inductive reasoning?
-In inductive reasoning, patterns observed in specific instances are used to make broader generalizations. Observing a consistent pattern allows for the formulation of general principles or theories.
What are some real-world applications of inductive reasoning?
-Real-world applications of inductive reasoning include scientific research, market analysis, predicting consumer behavior, and any scenario where conclusions are drawn from specific data or observations to inform decisions about a larger group.
What is the significance of the example involving the 500-person study in the video?
-The 500-person study example illustrates how inductive reasoning is used to infer characteristics of a larger population from a smaller sample, showing the practical application of this reasoning method in research.
Outlines
🔍 Inductive Reasoning in Scientific Method
This paragraph discusses the use of inductive reasoning in the scientific method, highlighting its prevalence despite not always being well-understood. It explains inductive reasoning as the process of making generalizations from specific observations to a larger group. The speaker uses the example of a study on people's opinions about online videos to illustrate how specific data can lead to general conclusions about a population. The paragraph also mentions a study of 2,430 Mexican individuals to generalize internet usage habits to the entire Mexican population, emphasizing the transition from particular cases to broader generalizations, which is the essence of inductive thinking.

Highlights
In many cases in the scientific method, inductive reasoning is used, but it may not always be clear to everyone.
Inductive reasoning involves making generalizations from specific observations or individual cases.
For example, studying 500 people and generalizing the findings to a larger population is a form of inductive reasoning.
If the data from a study of 500 people is correct, the characteristics of these 500 people can be generalized to the majority of the population.
Inductive reasoning starts with specific cases and generalizes them to a broader group.
A more concrete example is a study of 2,430 Mexicans where their internet usage habits were generalized to the entire Mexican population.
The study of 2,430 people allowed researchers to generalize that the average Mexican spends around 8 hours and 20 minutes online per day.
Inductive reasoning involves observing a pattern, making generalizations, and even forming an explanation or theory.
If a study is correct using inductive reasoning, the results can be generalized to the larger population.
In this study, researchers inferred that the majority of Mexicans spend 2 hours and 20 minutes watching TV and 2 hours listening to radio without the internet.
Inductive reasoning moves from specific cases (individuals) to general conclusions (the population).
A useful technique to remember the difference between inductive and deductive reasoning: inductive reasoning goes from the individual to the general, while deductive reasoning goes from the general to the specific.
Deductive reasoning moves from general principles to specific conclusions.
The speaker encourages viewers to watch a related video on deductive reasoning and provides links.

en muchos casos en el método científico
se usa el razonamiento inductivo pero a
pesar de que es muy usado en ciencia no
siempre todos lo tenemos tan claro por
lo tanto habías pensado que es el
razonamiento inductivo
hice este vídeo hablando del
razonamiento inductivo pero si te
interesa saber qué es el razonamiento
deductivo también hice un vídeo hay un
vínculo aquí y otro en la descripción
del vídeo el razonamiento inductivo se
refiere a tomar observaciones
específicas y generalizar las a un grupo
similar más grande
en otras palabras de observaciones
particulares y casos individuales se
realizan inferencias y se construyen
principios generales por ejemplo
supongamos que yo estudio a un grupo de
500 personas acerca de su opinión de los
vídeos en internet si sigo ciertas
reglas y selecciona a las personas
aleatoriamente esto me permitirá inferir
ciertas características del resto de la
población es decir si los datos son
correctos a pesar de únicamente haber
estudiado a 500 personas es probable que
las características de esas 500 personas
las tengan todas las demás personas de
la misma población o mínimo una mayoría
de ellas
en otras palabras de 500 casos
específicos se generaliza a las demás
personas dentro de esa población es
decir razonamiento inductivo pero me
parece que un ejemplo más claro es lo
que se hizo en este estudio de dos mil
cuatrocientos treinta personas mexicanas
en el cual se investigaron los hábitos
de uso de internet de esas dos mil 430
personas mexicanas y se generalizaron a
los 128 millones de mexicanos en otras
palabras se estudiaron 2 mil 430
personas específicas y sus
características las generalizaron a un
número mayor de individuos esto es la
base del pensamiento inductivo el cual
va de lo particular a lo general por lo
tanto en el pensamiento inductivo se
hacen observaciones se mira un patrón y
de ahí se pueden realizar
generalizaciones inferencias e incluso
una explicación o teoría en otras
palabras si este estudio es correcto
utilizando el pensamiento inductivo
podemos generalizar sus resultados e
inferir que la mayoría de los mexicanos
pasan cerca de 8 horas 20 minutos en
internet al día ven 2 horas 20 minutos
de televisa
y escuchan dos horas de radio sin
internet es decir pasamos de un número
de casos específicos en este caso dos
mil 438 a hacer una generalización de un
grupo más grande en este caso todos los
demás mexicanos pero antes de que te
vayas me gustaría decirte una técnica
que a mí me gusta para recordar la
diferencia entre el pensamiento
inductivo y deductivo el pensamiento
inductivo va del individuo hacia la
población es decir del individuo a lo
general como inductivo y el pensamiento
deductivo va de dos personas a una como
deductivo es decir de lo general a lo
específico pero bueno si quieres ver mi
vídeo del razonamiento deductivo da clic
aquí o en la descripción del vídeo
entonces se te ocurre algún otro uso del
razonamiento inductivo dime en los
comentarios
