Deduction (9)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

inference

'deduction' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)

This is all the clue.

(Other definitions for inference that I've seen before include "Niece fern (anag.)" , "Conclusion reached on the basis of evidence and reasoning" , "Deduction from evidence" , "Deduction, conclusion" .)

I've seen this clue in the Evening Standard.
