justification
Meaning
Justification refers to the reasoning or rationale provided to support a particular action, belief, or decision, often involving the presentation of evidence or arguments that validate its appropriateness or necessity within a given context.
💡 While "justification" can imply a defense of an action or belief, it is important to distinguish between sound justifications based on objective evidence and those that may rely on subjective or biased reasoning.
