2 Recap: Evaluating an Argument Argument: John is tall enough to ride the roller coaster. You are taller than John. Therefore, you are tall enough to ride the roller coaster. The argument may be valid, but does the argument appear sound? It all depends on whether we believe the initial claims (premises) are true.

3 Recap: Assessing Credibility of Claims Two Main Factors 1. How believable is the claim? 2. How credible is the source?
