Question

Hi. This is a question for my summer neuroscience class.

Q: Explain the relevant differences in inductive and deductive approaches to studying language and brain.

Answer 1

An inductive approach to study brain and language uses various experiments and new discoveries to draw the a conclusion. Inductive approach is a bottom up approach.
In a deductive approach pretested theories are used to study the brain and language. Deductive approach is a top down approach.
In inductive approach the brain and its structures are studied in a way to gain new knowledge and experiences. This approach requires gaining new findings. These experiences, knowledge and findings are then laid down to draw a conclusion.
In deductive approach the pretested theories and preformed knowledge is used to study different parts of brain and language in relation to brain.
