SECTION II. Of the Logical Function of the Understanding in Judgements.[edit]

SS 5[edit]
If we abstract all the content of a judgement, and consider only the intellectual form thereof, we find that the function of thought in a judgement can be brought under four heads, of which each contains three momenta. These may be conveniently represented in the following table:

1
Quantity of judgements
Universal
Particular
Singular
2
Quality
Affirmative
Negative
Infinite
3
Relation
Categorical
Hypothetical
Disjunctive
4
Modality
Problematical
Assertorical
Apodeictical
