Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The method described is deductive reasoning, which starts with a general statement or hypothesis and examines the possibilities to reach a specific, logical conclusion. Inductive reasoning, in contrast, makes broad generalizations from specific observations. Empirical methods are based on observation and experiment, and while scientific methods can involve both inductive and deductive reasoning, the description specifically matches the process of deductive reasoning.
