    Difference Between Inference and Conclusion

    Uploaded by

    Brylle Patayon
    Inference and conclusion are both ways of determining information not directly stated, but they differ in important ways. Inference uses known facts to derive possible other facts, and can be accurate or not, logical or not. Conclusion is a logical step derived solely from given information without inferring beyond what is stated. So inference is like an educated guess, while conclusion logically flows from the presented details.

    IN A NUTSHELL
    Difference between inference and conclusion

    These 2 terms are both an act trying to figure out what is not specifically stated in the
    text or in a given situation. It is easy for us to think they have an almost the same meaning but
    in fact they are different from each other. When we say inference, we are using facts in
    determining other facts. It is when we examine facts in a situation and thinking suggestions
    about what might happen in the situation. Inference can be accurate or inaccurate, logical or
    illogical, just or unjust. On the other hand, when we say conclusion, it is a logical step in the
    information series. A conclusion must be derived from the given information, and must not be
    inferred from the given statement. So inference is an educated guess almost same as
    hypothesis while a conclusion is more on logically deriving the next step.
