You’ve probably experienced this: You hear something that sounds great. But, when you think it through, it doesn’t make a whole lot of sense. A fallacy could be to blame. The more you know about fallacies, the better you’ll be able to evaluate information<\/a> and arguments.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

3 Types of Fallacies<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The authors of Critical Thinking, Logic & Problem Solving<\/em> advise that you assess your information for fallacious logic and be on the lookout for fallacies in your own logic as well. A fallacy is a misunderstanding that interferes with your reasoning. They discuss different types of fallacies that are fairly common.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

(Shortform note: While a fallacy is indicative of a flaw in reasoning, it doesn\u2019t necessarily prove an argument\u2019s conclusion is false<\/a>. Someone may use a fallacy to make a claim or come to a conclusion that is correct, so while it\u2019s important to spot fallacies and avoid them yourself, don\u2019t assume that a claim backed up by a fallacy is automatically false\u2014this assumption is actually a fallacy as well, known as the fallacy fallacy.) <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Let’s explore three different types of fallacies you’re likely to run into.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

#1: Middle Ground Fallacy<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

The middle ground fallacy is when there are two opposite options and you assume that the compromise between the two must be correct. However, if either of the opposite options is incorrect, then the middle ground will also be incorrect. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

(Shortform note: The middle ground fallacy, also called the false compromise fallacy or bothsiderism, comes from the belief that both sides of an argument deserve equal consideration<\/a>. However, this becomes problematic when the two opposing sides aren\u2019t equally valid. One of the clearest illustrations of this is when the argument revolves around a question with an obviously correct answer<\/a>, such as \u201cIs Nazism bad?\u201d To paint both sides of this argument as equally valid (suggesting that \u201cNazism is bad\u201d is as accurate a claim as \u201cNazism is good\u201d) is fallacious because one side relies on the dehumanization of large groups of people, and seeking a middle ground in this argument gives undue credence to that side.)<\/p>\n\n\n\n

#2: False Cause<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

False cause is confusing correlation with causation. Two things that co-occur may not mean that either one caused the other. It\u2019s possible that both factors are caused by a third variable. For example, you might notice that the more vegetables you eat each day, the more tired you feel. You conclude that eating vegetables makes you tired, but what you may have failed to consider is that eating more vegetables leaves less room in your diet for protein, and the lack of protein\u2014not the consumption of vegetables\u2014is what\u2019s actually making you tired.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

(Shortform note: In How to Lie With Statistics<\/em><\/a>, Darrell Huff explains that switching correlation and causation<\/a> is a common<\/a> way for people to manipulate information to support their ideas. He points out that two factors might correlate just because of coincidence, and it\u2019s not always possible to identify the cause of either factor. He also notes that, even when there is a causal relationship between the two factors, it doesn\u2019t mean there will always be a causal relationship\u2014for example, if you find evidence that exercise improves physical performance, that doesn\u2019t mean unlimited exercise will continue to improve performance, as, eventually, it will result in injury and reduced performance.)<\/p>\n\n\n\n

#3: Anecdotal Evidence Fallacy<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

The anecdotal evidence fallacy involves using anecdotes, or isolated examples from real life, as evidence for a larger argument when more general evidence may not support that argument. For example, if you\u2019ve met three people who got plastic surgery and all three of them regretted it, that\u2019s not enough evidence to say that all\u2014or even most\u2014people who get plastic surgery regret it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

(Shortform note: Research suggests that anecdotal evidence is particularly compelling to audiences who are personally affected by the topic<\/a>. To a person who has a vested interest in a topic or whose health may be affected by it, a personal story or illustration can be more impactful than statistical evidence. And while relying entirely on anecdotal evidence is fallacious, including anecdotes to back up statistical evidence isn\u2019t necessarily fallacious and can be useful in driving your argument home.)<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
