So besides
having three different conclusions, the three forms of inference have
three different starting points--Rule/Case/Result for deduction,
Case/Result/Rule for induction, and Result/Rule/Case for abduction.
This is how I have understood it as well.
However, the "surprising result" comes from Thirdness and that is why I
have a hard time seeing abduction in a purely 1ns light. Rather, I see
Peirce's thoughts on categorization as providing the dynamics of the
semiosis of logic and the scientific method, wherein 3ns is the grounds
for abduction, the "surprising result" becoming the topic of the next
category, with the potentials resulting from abductive thinking
populating the potentials of 1ns of the new category. We then test those
potentials via induction and deduction in order to generate the 3ns and
the new "surprising results" for the new category. Thus, new categories
and semiosis and the process of truth-testing continues (as a goal or
limit function).
