Summary
The essence of tackling inference questions on the LSAT involves constructing a logical chain from the given information to prove an answer choice true.
  • Inference questions demand proof of an answer choice using the provided stimulus, requiring a thorough understanding of the information presented.
  • A causal chain is identified linking exercise, calmness of mind, reduced stress, and potentially lowered blood pressure, though not in a strictly formal sense.
  • The correct answer choice (E) is supported by the causal chain, demonstrating that engaging in exercise can lead to reduced stress levels for at least some people.
  • Incorrect answer choices often misinterpret the causal direction or overstate the universality of the effect.
  • The process emphasizes the importance of closely analyzing the stimulus to identify logical relationships and potential inferences.
