Cоnsider the fоllоwing аrgument аnd its mаp. “Is this an advance, a more enlightened and scientific approach to the world? Hardly. 1 The practice of ‘medicalizing’ problems ought to be broken. For one thing, because 2 many of our problems are spiritual, existential, or philosophical, 3 many of our problems can be solved only through spiritual, existential, or philosophical means. But 4 once a problem is ‘medicalized’ it isn’t given a spiritual, existential, or philosophical solution, and so 5 medicalizing our problems can actually prevent them from being solved. For another thing, 6 medicalizing problems encourages people to think of themselves as victims, and 7 it isn’t a good thing for people to think of themselves as victims because 8 if it were a good thing for people to think of themselves as victims then criminals would be doing people a favor by victimizing them, and 9 clearly criminals don’t do people a favor by victimizing them.” MC 4.4b.pngPremise 8 reads, “8 If it were a good thing for people to think of themselves as victims then criminals would be doing people a favor by victimizing them” Suppose the author of the argument is thinking about changing premise 8 to “8 If criminals did people a favor by victimizing them then it would be a good thing for people to think of themselves as victims.” Would inference D be valid or invalid after this revision to premise 8?
