Argument map

An argument map or argument diagram is a visual


representation of the structure of an argument. An argument map
typically includes all the key components of the argument,
traditionally called the conclusion and the premises, also called
contention and reasons.[1] Argument maps can also show co-
premises, objections, counterarguments, rebuttals, and lemmas.
There are different styles of argument map but they are often
functionally equivalent and represent an argument's individual
claims and the relationships between them.

Argument maps are commonly used in the context of teaching and


applying critical thinking.[2] The purpose of mapping is to uncover
A schematic argument map showing
the logical structure of arguments, identify unstated assumptions,
a contention (or conclusion),
evaluate the support an argument offers for a conclusion, and aid
supporting arguments and
understanding of debates. Argument maps are often designed to
objections, and an inference
support deliberation of issues, ideas and arguments in wicked
objection
problems.[3]

An argument map is not to be confused with a concept map or a


mind map, two other kinds of node–link diagram which have different constraints on nodes and links.[4]

Key features
A number of different kinds of argument maps have been proposed but the most common, which Chris
Reed and Glenn Rowe called the standard diagram,[5] consists of a tree structure with each of the reasons
leading to the conclusion. There is no consensus as to whether the conclusion should be at the top of the
tree with the reasons leading up to it or whether it should be at the bottom with the reasons leading down to
it.[5] Another variation diagrams an argument from left to right.[6]

According to Douglas N. Walton and colleagues, an argument map has two basic components: "One
component is a set of circled numbers arrayed as points. Each number represents a proposition (premise or
conclusion) in the argument being diagrammed. The other component is a set of lines or arrows joining the
points. Each line (arrow) represents an inference. The whole network of points and lines represents a kind
of overview of the reasoning in the given argument..."[7] With the introduction of software for producing
argument maps, it has become common for argument maps to consist of boxes containing the actual
propositions rather than numbers referencing those propositions.

There is disagreement on the terminology to be used when describing argument maps,[8] but the standard
diagram contains the following structures:

Dependent premises or co-premises, where at least one of the joined premises requires another premise
before it can give support to the conclusion: An argument with this structure has been called a linked
argument.[9]
Statements 1
and 2 are
dependent
premises or co-
premises.

Independent premises, where the premise can support the conclusion on its own: Although independent
premises may jointly make the conclusion more convincing, this is to be distinguished from situations
where a premise gives no support unless it is joined to another premise. Where several premises or groups
of premises lead to a final conclusion the argument might be described as convergent. This is distinguished
from a divergent argument where a single premise might be used to support two separate conclusions.[10]

Statements 2, 3, 4 are
independent premises.

Intermediate conclusions or sub-conclusions, where a claim is supported by another claim that is used in
turn to support some further claim, i.e. the final conclusion or another intermediate conclusion: In the
following diagram, statement 4 is an intermediate conclusion in that it is a conclusion in relation to
statement 5 but is a premise in relation to the final conclusion, i.e. statement 1. An argument with this
structure is sometimes called a complex argument. If there is a single chain of claims containing at least one
intermediate conclusion, the argument is sometimes described as a serial argument or a chain argument.[11]

Statement 4 is an
intermediate conclusion
or sub-conclusion.
Each of these structures can be represented by the equivalent "box and line" approach to argument maps. In
the following diagram, the contention is shown at the top, and the boxes linked to it represent supporting
reasons, which comprise one or more premises. The green arrow indicates that the two reasons support the
contention:

A box and line diagram

Argument maps can also represent counterarguments. In the following diagram, the two objections weaken
the contention, while the reasons support the premise of the objection:

Representing an argument as an argument map

Diagramming written text

A written text can be transformed into an argument map by following a sequence of steps. Monroe
Beardsley's 1950 book Practical Logic recommended the following procedure:[12]

1. Separate statements by brackets and number them.


2. Put circles around the logical indicators.
3. Supply, in parenthesis, any logical indicators that are left out.
4. Set out the statements in a diagram in which arrows show the relationships between
statements.

Beardsley gave the first example of a text being analysed in this way:
Though ① [people who talk about the "social significance" of the arts
don’t like to admit it], ② [music and painting are bound to suffer when
they are turned into mere vehicles for propaganda]. For ③
[propaganda appeals to the crudest and most vulgar feelings]: (for) ④
[look at the academic monstrosities produced by the official Nazi
painters]. What is more important, ⑤ [art must be an end in itself for the
artist], because ⑥ [the artist can do the best work only in an
atmosphere of complete freedom].
A diagram of
Beardsley said that the conclusion in this example is statement ②. Statement ④ needs the example
to be rewritten as a declarative sentence, e.g. "Academic monstrosities [were] from
produced by the official Nazi painters." Statement ① points out that the conclusion Beardsley's
Practical Logic
isn't accepted by everyone, but statement ① is omitted from the diagram because it
doesn't support the conclusion. Beardsley said that the logical relation between
statement ③ and statement ④ is unclear, but he proposed to diagram statement ④ as
supporting statement ③.

More recently, philosophy professor Maralee Harrell recommended the


following procedure:[13]

1. Identify all the claims being made by the author.


2. Rewrite them as independent statements, eliminating non-
essential words.
3. Identify which statements are premises, sub-conclusions, A box and line diagram of
and the main conclusion. Beardsley's example, produced
4. Provide missing, implied conclusions and implied premises. using Harrell's procedure
(This is optional depending on the purpose of the argument
map.)
5. Put the statements into boxes and draw a line between any boxes that are linked.
6. Indicate support from premise(s) to (sub)conclusion with arrows.

Diagramming as thinking

Argument maps are useful not only for representing and analyzing existing writings, but also for thinking
through issues as part of a problem-structuring process or writing process.[14] The use of such argument
analysis for thinking through issues has been called "reflective argumentation".[15]

An argument map, unlike a decision tree, does not tell how to make a decision, but the process of choosing
a coherent position (or reflective equilibrium) based on the structure of an argument map can be represented
as a decision tree.[16]

History

The philosophical origins and tradition of argument mapping

In the Elements of Logic, published in 1826 and issued in many subsequent editions,[17] Archbishop
Richard Whately gave probably the first form of an argument map, introducing it with the suggestion that
"many students probably will find it a very clear and convenient mode of exhibiting the logical analysis of
the course of argument, to draw it out in the form of a Tree, or Logical Division".
However, the technique did not become widely used, possibly
because for complex arguments, it involved much writing and
rewriting of the premises.

Legal philosopher and theorist John Henry Wigmore produced


maps of legal arguments using numbered premises in the early 20th
century,[18] based in part on the ideas of 19th century philosopher
Henry Sidgwick who used lines to indicate relations between
terms.[19]
From Whately's Elements of Logic
p467, 1852 edition
Anglophone argument diagramming in the
20th century

Dealing with the failure of formal reduction of informal


argumentation, English speaking argumentation theory developed
diagrammatic approaches to informal reasoning over a period of
fifty years.

Monroe Beardsley proposed a form of argument diagram in Wigmore evidence chart, from 1905
1950.[12] His method of marking up an argument and representing
its components with linked numbers became a standard and is still
widely used. He also introduced terminology that is still current describing convergent, divergent and serial
arguments.

Stephen Toulmin, in his groundbreaking and influential 1958 book


The Uses of Argument,[20] identified several elements to an
argument which have been generalized. The Toulmin diagram is
widely used in educational critical teaching.[21][22] Whilst Toulmin
eventually had a significant impact on the development of informal
logic he had little initial impact and the Beardsley approach to
diagramming arguments along with its later developments became
the standard approach in this field. Toulmin introduced something A Toulmin argument diagram,
that was missing from Beardsley's approach. In Beardsley, "arrows redrawn from his 1959 Uses of
link reasons and conclusions (but) no support is given to the Argument
implication itself between them. There is no theory, in other words,
of inference distinguished from logical deduction, the passage is
always deemed not controversial and not subject to support and
evaluation".[23] Toulmin introduced the concept of warrant which
"can be considered as representing the reasons behind the inference,
the backing that authorizes the link".[24]

Beardsley's approach was refined by Stephen N. Thomas, whose


1973 book Practical Reasoning In Natural Language[25] A generalised Toulmin diagram
introduced the term linked to describe arguments where the
premises necessarily worked together to support the conclusion.[26]
However, the actual distinction between dependent and independent premises had been made prior to
this.[26] The introduction of the linked structure made it possible for argument maps to represent missing or
"hidden" premises. In addition, Thomas suggested showing reasons both for and against a conclusion with
the reasons against being represented by dotted arrows. Thomas introduced the term argument diagram
and defined basic reasons as those that were not supported by any others in the argument and the final
conclusion as that which was not used to support any further conclusion.
Michael Scriven further developed the Beardsley-Thomas approach
in his 1976 book Reasoning.[27] Whereas Beardsley had said "At
first, write out the statements...after a little practice, refer to the
statements by number alone"[28] Scriven advocated clarifying the
meaning of the statements, listing them and then using a tree

explicit statements. Scriven introduced counterarguments in his
diagrams, which Toulmin had defined as rebuttal.[29] This also
enabled the diagramming of "balance of consideration" arguments.[30]

In 1998 a series of large-scale argument maps released by Robert E. Horn stimulated widespread interest in
argument mapping.[31]

Development of computer-supported argument visualization

Human–computer interaction pioneer Douglas Engelbart, in a


famous 1962 technical report on intelligence augmentation,
envisioned in detail something like argument-mapping software as
an integral part of future intelligence-augmenting computer
interfaces:[34]

You usually think of an argument as a serial sequence


of steps of reason, beginning with known facts,
assumptions, etc., and progressing toward a
conclusion. Well, we do have to think through these The argument map tree schema of
steps serially, and we usually do list the steps serially Kialo with an example path through

enable us to use.  ... To help us get better
comprehension of the structure of an argument, we can
also call forth a schematic or graphical display. Once
the antecedent-consequent links have been established,
the computer can automatically construct such a
display for us.

— Douglas Engelbart, "Augmenting human


intellect: a conceptual framework" (1962)
A partial argument tree with claims
In the middle to late 1980s, hypertext software applications that and impact votes for arguments
supported argument visualization were developed, including illustrates one form of collective
NoteCards and gIBIS; the latter generated an on-screen graphical determination of argument weights
hypertextual map of an issue-based information system, a model of that is based on equal-weight user
argumentation developed by Werner Kunz and Horst Rittel in the voting.[33]
1970s. [35] In the 1990s, Tim van Gelder and colleagues developed
a series of software applications that permitted an argument map's
premises to be fully stated and edited in the diagram, rather than in a legend.[36] Van Gelder's first program,
Reason!Able, was superseded by two subsequent programs, bCisive and Rationale.[37]
Throughout the 1990s and 2000s, many other software applications were developed for argument
visualization. By 2013, more than 60 such software systems existed.[38] In a 2010 survey of computer-
supported argumentation, Oliver Scheuer and colleagues noted that one of the differences between these
software systems is whether collaboration is supported.[39] In their survey, single-user argumentation
systems included Convince Me, iLogos, LARGO, Athena, Araucaria, and Carneades; small group
argumentation systems included Digalo, QuestMap, Compendium, Belvedere, and AcademicTalk;
community argumentation systems included Debategraph and Collaboratorium.[39] Free and open source
structured argumentation systems include Argdown[40] and Argüman.[41] As of 2020, the commercial
website Kialo is the most widely adopted argumentation-based deliberation system.[42]

Applications
Argument maps have been applied in many areas, but foremost in educational, academic and business
settings, including design rationale.[43] Argument maps are also used in forensic science,[44] law, and
artificial intelligence.[45] It has also been proposed that argument mapping has a great potential to improve
how we understand and execute democracy, in reference to the ongoing evolution of e-democracy.[46]

Difficulties with the philosophical tradition

It has traditionally been hard to separate teaching critical thinking from the philosophical tradition of
teaching logic and method, and most critical thinking textbooks have been written by philosophers.
Informal logic textbooks are replete with philosophical examples, but it is unclear whether the approach in
such textbooks transfers to non-philosophy students.[21] There appears to be little statistical effect after such
classes. Argument mapping, however, has a measurable effect according to many studies.[47] For example,
instruction in argument mapping has been shown to improve the critical thinking skills of business
students.[48]

Evidence that argument mapping improves critical thinking ability

There is empirical evidence that the skills developed in argument-mapping-based critical thinking courses
substantially transfer to critical thinking done without argument maps. Alvarez's meta-analysis found that
such critical thinking courses produced gains of around 0.70 SD, about twice as much as standard critical-
thinking courses.[49] The tests used in the reviewed studies were standard critical-thinking tests.

Limitations
When used with students in school, argument maps have limitations. They can "end up looking overly
complex" and can increase cognitive load beyond what is optimal for learning the course content.[50]
Creating maps requires extensive coaching and feedback from an experienced argument mapper.[50]
Depending on the learning objectives, the time spent coaching students to create good maps may be better
spent learning the course content instead of learning to diagram.[50] When the goal is to prompt students to
consider other perspectives and counterarguments, the goal may be more easily accomplished with other
methods such as discussion, rubrics, and a simple argument framework or simple graphic organizer such as
a vee diagram.[50] To maximize the strengths of argument mapping and minimize its limitations in the
classroom requires considering at what point in a learning progression the potential benefits of argument
mapping would outweigh its potential disadvantages.[50]

Standards

Argument Interchange Format

The Argument Interchange Format, AIF, is an international effort to develop a representational mechanism
for exchanging argument resources between research groups, tools, and domains using a semantically rich
language.[51] AIF-RDF is the extended ontology represented in the Resource Description Framework
Schema (RDFS) semantic language. Though AIF is still something of a moving target, it is settling
down.[52]

Legal Knowledge Interchange Format

The Legal Knowledge Interchange Format (LKIF)[53] was developed in the European ESTRELLA
project[54] and designed with the goal of becoming a standard for representing and interchanging policy,
legislation and cases, including their justificatory arguments, in the legal domain. LKIF builds on and uses
the Web Ontology Language (OWL) for representing concepts and includes a reusable basic ontology of
legal concepts.

Argdown

Argdown is a Markdown-inspired lightweight markup language for complex argumentation.[40] It is


intended for exchanging arguments and argument reconstructions in a universally accessible and highly
human-readable way. The Argdown syntax is accompanied by tools that facilitate coding and transform
Argdown documents into argument maps.[55]
