41

Point of Information

42
Q

This fallacy falsely assumes that one event causes another. Often a reader will mistake a time connection for a cause-effect connection. Similar to Post-Hoc Fallacy, but caused by lack of research.

A

Mistaken or Illogical Idea

43
Q

is similar to making an unstated or invalid assumption. It occurs when a speaker employs an unsupported assertion in defense of their central idea.

A

An error in reasoning

44
Q

is defined as one that is deductively invalid, contains an unjustified premise, or that ignores relevant evidence that is available and that should be known by the arguer.

A

Illegitimate Arguments

45
Q

Also known as the logical fallacy of irrelevant thesis. It occurs when reasons are given that, if true, still would not prove the conclusion. In these cases, the premises (or reasons to believe) may be true, but the conclusion doesn’t follow from them.

A

Irrelevant Points

46
Q

Also known as Appeal to Ignorance. This fallacy occurs when you argue that your conclusion must be true, because there is no evidence against it. This fallacy wrongly shifts the burden of proof away from the one making the claim.

A

Lack of Evidence

47
Q

Occurs when we accept a claim merely because someone tells us an authority figure supports that claim. An authority figure supports that claim. An authority figure can be any person whose status and prestige causes us to respect them.

A

Appeal to Authority

48
Q

This fallacy attempts to capitalize upon feelings of respect or familiarity with a famous individual.

A

Appeal to Improper Authority

49
Q

A

Appeal to Biased Authority

50
Q

Attempting to discredit an opponent’s position by pointing out their contradictory behavior or hypocritical stance, an attempt to turn the conversation’s focus onto an opponent’s flaws.

A

Appeal to Hypocrisy

51
Q

often by arousing the feelings and enthusiasm of the multitude rather than building an argument.

A

Appeal to Popular

52
Q

“Everybody is doing it.” This argumentum ad populum asserts that, since the majority of people believes an argument or chooses a particular course of action, the argument must be true, or the course of action must be followed, or the decision must be the best choice.

A

Bandwagon Approach

53
Q

“Draping oneself in the flag.” This argument asserts that a certain stance is true or correct because it is somehow patriotic, and that those who disagree are unpatriotic.

A

Patriotic Approach

54
Q

This type of argumentum ad populum doesn’t assert “everybody is doing it,” but rather that “all the best people are doing it.”

A

Snob Approach

55
Q

Asserting that an argument must be false because the implications of it being true would create negative results. The argument is illogical because truth and falsity are not contingent based upon how much we like or dislike the consequences of that truth.

A

Argument from Adverse Consequences

56
Q

Asserting that opponent’s argument must be false because you personally don’t understand it or can’t follow its technicalities.
