Predication (philosophy)
&sq=crain_ford&lang=en&file=File:Sanzio_01_Plato_Aristotle.jpg)
Predication in philosophy refers to an act of judgement where one term is subsumed under another.[1] A comprehensive conceptualization describes it as the understanding of the relation expressed by a predicative structure primordially (i.e. both originally and primarily) through the opposition between particular and general or the one and the many.[1]
Predication is also associated or used interchangeably with the concept of attribution where both terms pertain to the way judgment and ideas acquire a new property in the second operation of the mind (or the mental operation of judging[2]).[3]
