Within reason: Categorising enthymematic reasoning in the balloon task

Abstract:
In dialogue, people often use reasoning that relies on information not explicitly present in the discourse, or enthymemes. We report on a preliminary corpus study to categorise the enthymematic arguments used in text chat discussions of a moral dilemma; the balloon task.
