Conclusion-making
Conclusions often include information on analytic confidence, open questions or issues or further research needs, confidence intervals, and recommendations, consisting of high-level abstract interpretation and sensemaking of a work's results or data. In science, conclusion-making or drawing conclusions is the last step of the scientific method, or second-last if a step 'reporting results' is included.[1]
Conclusion-making can be distinguished from decision-making and judgments in that conclusions are final[2][3] decisions, for example after a process of deliberation or at the end of a study, are only reasoned judgments,[3] and that they – at least in the scientific context – are established with "careful regard to evidence, but without regard to consequences of specific actions in specific circumstances".[4] A final decision to use a conclusion for a specified intended use may still be less a conclusion than a decision.[5]
The methods or ways of how conclusions are being made are a subject of research in the contexts of scientific literature, education, cognitive neuroscience, collective intelligence, and artificial intelligence.
Argumentative sentences are often used in daily communication and have important role in each decision or conclusion making process – one approach is to explore them computationally via argument annotation and analysis using deep learning.[6] More broadly, in artificial intelligence, human conclusion-making is reproduced,[7][8][9] or it can improve conclusion-making.[10]
In science and education[edit]
The contents of academic papers often include, a by now more or less established, standard section called "Conclusions", with common similar or synonymous section titles including "Conclusion" or "Discussion".[11] The section is often the last section of a study before the references and may be the most commonly read sections of studies,[12] right after their shorter summarizing abstracts and the title(s).[13][14] Sometimes a conclusions section is part of a subdivided (or "structured")[15] abstract section. Conclusions are to be distinguished from "Results" sections of studies or study results with the former interpreting, summarizing,[16] finding meaning and significance in,[17][18][12] and contextualizing[19] the results data. Often, the decision whether or not to read the entire or more of an article is made only after reading the abstract and conclusions sections, which is recommended by some.[20] Sometimes these sections also point out identified knowledge gaps.[21]
Metascience studies can list and analyze a variety of factors that could lead to unjustified conclusions that are not accounted for in the typical statistical measures used such as statistical significance or standard deviations.[23] Assessing whether studies' conclusions match their data was a common advice by experienced academics, for which also looking at the figures early may be useful.[24] Often, studies only include results that led to its conclusions, not also describing dead-ends and non-results.[25]
According to Tukey, the scientific body grows by the reaching of conclusions, which are to be accepted to subsequently be taken into the body of knowledge, "not just into the guidebook of advice for immediate action, as would be the case with a decision" and "something of lasting value extracted from the data".[4] He suggests that the conclusion is to "remain accepted, unless and until unusually strong evidence to the contrary arises and "accepted subject to future rejection, when and if the evidence against it becomes strong enough".[4]
In science education and science-based education[edit]
Educational textbooks "generally give the right answer or the conclusion rather than clarify the interpretive process, including pitfalls, wrong paths, and misunderstandings that occur along the way."[25] Schwab criticized in 1962 that science was too commonly taught as:[25]
“ | a nearly unmitigated rhetoric of conclusions in which the current and temporary constructions of scientific knowledge are conveyed as empirical, literal, and irrevocable truths (in which students are asked) to accept the tentative as certain, the doubtful as undoubted, by making no mention of reasons or evidence for what it asserts | ” |
Good knowledge of conclusion-making methods is essential for learning about natural and social phenomena – such as analogy, inductive and deductive reasoning and how such are deployed, including proving claims, systematization of knowledge, and checking hypotheses.[26] Students' conclusion-making skills can be improved with digital technologies.[27][28]
A study investigated how nursing students deferred their conclusions and sought guidance from "others", usually registered nurses or sometimes doctors, when they wanted clarification or confirmation about their interpretation or implications.[29]
In science-based societal practices[edit]
In clinical decision-making, mistakes of accepting a diagnosis conclusion before it has been fully verified have been called 'premature closure'.[30]
Modern humans make widespread use of induction and deduction, including scientists of modern society. France Bacon first formalized induction in his 1620 book Novum Organum and advised that facts should be assimilated without bias to reach a conclusion.[1]
Artificial intelligence[edit]
Conclusion-making may be an important element of various artificial intelligence systems.[32] A researcher suggests that one could say that an agent exhibits rational thinking "if it is able to provide reasons for what it does or what it believes" where "[e]xternal observers can verify whether a system thinks rationally if the system uses an understandable language to describe its own beliefs and justifications about how conclusions are reached".[33] This capability is especially useful in the context of what is called explainable artificial intelligence,[33][9][34] which relates to transparency and logical replicability. Neural networks "formulate the final conclusion-making process as the classification or generation task" and "lack in explaining how they perform induction and reasoning".[35] Interpretability can be valuable by verifying the logic for a specific conclusion.[36] If the system uses "an understandable language to describe its own beliefs and justifications about how conclusions are reached",[33] it may be unclear if that indeed and fully describes the deployed actual reasoning. Some researchers have argued open-source artificial intelligence in the context of transparency and verifiability.[37][38]
Machines can deduce conclusions "from beliefs" using efficient algorithms based on automated reasoning like automated theorem provers and can also "automate other types reasoning such as approximate reasoning (e.g., using probabilistic representations) or analogical reasoning (e.g., case-based reasoning)".[33]
Semantic Web research indicates "semantic-based search", e.g. using SPARQL, can retrieve information from complex and heterogeneous database systems and "generate logical conclusions" on the requested issues.[39]
Conclusion-making is also be used by computational reasoning systems such as diagnostic aides and similar medical systems, sometimes in distinct units.[40][41][42][43][44][45][33] Especially for such systems, being able to see and understand systems' reasoning or getting "an [accurate] explanation" of how an answer was obtained is "crucial for ensuring trust and transparency".[46] In recursive processes, such algorithms are in some designs given feedback on whether their conclusions are correct.[47]
In argument map systems[edit]
A 2022 security studies paper found that in general current systems cannot reliably automate analysis or synthesis of arguments in the same way that statistical packages can automate analysis of data".[49] There is research into how to efficiently calculate the winning arguments or arguments weights and the overall conclusions.[50]
On the collaborative argument map website Kialo, users can vote on the overall debate topic as well as on individual claims to express their perspectives or conclusions, with the rationale (i.e. the main causal arguments) why they voted on the veracity of the thesis as they did not being captured.[51] This represents the platform's algorithm of collective determination of argument weights and theses' veracities[48] which has a plurality component in that the user can also switch between the perspectives of specific users and some groups of users (e.g. supporters and opposers of a thesis).[52] It features at least five key components of conclusion-making or the understanding thereof in the context historical-political education: perspectivity, relevance levels, interdependence, multicausality and assessments.[53]
Research and development[edit]
Research investigates various conclusion-making algorithms such as "ranking-based semantics based on the propagation of the weights of arguments, that give a higher weight to non-attacked arguments".[54] In terms of reliability and quality, such may require the sites to not exclude any valid arguments as long as they are relevant. Argumentation graphs can and were also built collaboratively with the open source software Argüman.[54]
Conclusion-making methods could be applied to debates or their data, e.g. via bipolar weighted argumentation frameworks, to find out what the current conclusion of debates like "Computer Science is not actually a science" is.[55] Meaningful implementations may require more possible outcomes than binary yes-or-no tendencies, e.g. highlighting key arguments or limitations. This may include "summarizing the contentious and agreed-upon points of a discussion".[56] The adoption or implementation of conclusion-making methods could address a problem with Kialo and Argüman where "it's not clear how a user would go about trying to absorb the gist of a debate by navigating an argument tree" as trees can become "extremely dense, and the interface does not [necessarily] make it obvious which arguments the user should pay attention to".[57] Conclusion-making could also enable summaries that could be used at other argument maps to which a structured debate is related. Debates or parts of it could be collaboratively summarized and condensed.[58]
Researchers have developed a way to explicitly model an argument's conclusion and shown that this conclusion-generation better enables the generation of stronger counter-arguments, especially when the attacked claim leaves its conclusion implicit. The stance of such counter-arguments needs to be opposite to that conclusion, which they suggest is key to "effective counter-argument generation", albeit counter-arguments can also attack an argument's premises or their connection to the conclusion.[59][60]
In general, there can be estimated degrees or known differences in the degrees of certainty "that confirms, or not, initial assumptions".[39]
In neuroscience[edit]
This section needs expansion. You can help by adding to it. (July 2023) |
Computational neuroscientists have shown that people with higher intelligence scores in Human Connectome Project cognitive tests took more time to solve difficult problems and that their higher synchrony between brain areas allowed for better integration of evidence (or progress) from preceding working memory sub-problem processing. Reducing synchrony in "avatar" simulations, that were adjusted and tuned towards personalization, "led decision-making circuits to quickly jump to conclusions". Their codified results may be useful for an understanding of cognition to replicate or imitate in bio-inspired computing.[61][62] An earlier study indicates best participants in an experiment were the ones "who jumped to an early speculation but then deliberately tested it", since the initial hypothesis gave them a basis for seeking data that would be diagnostic.[63] Conclusion making can be considered as part of a step in creative thinking in problem-solving,[64] and can also be considered to be a distinct higher order thinking activity,[65] and conclusion making investigated as a distinct capability in students from a cognitive perspective.[66]

Thus, arriving at a result (quantity value with an associated measurement uncertainty) from a given measurement, is one thing. It is a conclusion. Stating a result with a suitable uncertainty (based on an appropriate coverage factor) for a specified intended use, is another thing. It is a decision.

The findings showed that significant correlations existed among hypothesis-making, interpreting graphs, applying formulas, conclusion-making, conceptual understanding, and post-test. After an in-depth investigation, we found that interpreting graphs and conceptual understanding were the two most important factors to affect learning achievement. Additionally, students perceived that U-Physics was beneficial to their physics learning.

What is most important intelligent systems is making conclusions. The "intelligence" of the system is revealed through its ability to make decisions (via the conclusion making process), and also thorough[sic] its ability to learn and acquire knowledge. The intelligent systems, apart from classical information system include neural networks, fuzzy systems, decision trees and genetic algorithms (evolution algorithms). An intelligent system features the ability to acquire new knowledge, self-adapt, accept faulty or deficient data, and is creative at the same time.
