Logical form: The logical form of a statement describes its basic structure, regardless of its content. It shows how the components of the statement are connected to each other, for example by operators such as “and”, “or” or “not”. In formal logic, the logical form is used to analyze arguments and check their validity. The entries below deal with the special features of these forms. See also Logic, Operators, Connectives, Truth tables.
