Judgment

Judgment is the soul's silent dialogue with itself, reaching a conclusion about what is or is not the case.

Judgment is the combination or separation of concepts in a proposition; truth and falsity belong here, not to terms alone.

Truth resides in the judgment of the intellect as it conforms to the thing known.

Error arises because the will outruns the understanding, affirming what the intellect does not clearly perceive.

Knowledge is the perception of agreement between ideas; judgment operates where demonstration falls short, guided by probability.

Belief is a lively idea associated with a present impression; judgment is not an act of reason but a sentiment of the mind.

Judgment subsumes particulars under universals; its synthetic a priori forms make experience itself possible.

Judgment is the self-differentiation of the Concept; the subject posits the predicate as its own determination.

Judgment is a selective, interested act; the mind picks what to attend to and what to affirm based on its purposes.
