In logic, validity refers to the property of an argument wherein if the premises are true, the conclusion must also be true. An argument is considered valid if the structure guarantees that the conclusion logically follows from the premises. This means that it is impossible for the premises to be true while the conclusion is false. Validity is concerned with the form of the argument rather than the actual truth of the premises. For example, the following argument is valid: 1. All humans are mortal.
