Which Notion of Implication Is the Right One? From Logical Considerations to a Didactic Perspective.
Durand-Guerrier, Viviane
Educational Studies in Mathematics, v53 n1 p5-34 2003
Summarizes Tarski's semantic truth theory to clarify different aspects of implication. Extends the classical definition of implication as a relationship between propositions to a relationship between open sentences with at least one free variable. Analyzes two problematic situations and the presentation of some experimental results from research on first-year university students' understanding of implication. (Author/KHR)
