    HASTY

    GENERALIZATION
    It is a fallacy where a conclusion is drawn from insufficient or bias
    evidence
    EXAMPLE
    If someone says ‘All teenagers are lazy because I know one who is’, that
    would be a hasty generalization.
    CONTROLS
     Be aware of the tendency -Recognize that hasty generalization is a
    common logical fallacy and be mindful of it in your own thinking and
    conversations.
     Seek a representative sample -Ensure that the sample you are drawing
    conclusions from a large enough and accurately represents the entire
    group.
    FALSE CAUSE(post hoc fallacy)
    • It’s a logical fallacy that occurs when someone assumes that because one event
    follows another , the first event must have caused the second
    EXAMPLE
    If someone believes that wearing a certain shirt brings them good luck just because
    they wore it once and had a good day
    Thinking that if every time you wash your car it rains.
    CONTROL
     Understand correlation and causation- Recognize that if two events occur
    together or in sequence doesn’t mean one caused the other.
     Avoid jumping into conclusion- Resist the urge to immediately attribute causation
    when you observe a correlation.
    MISSING THE POINT
    • It is a logical fallacy that when someone’s argument or response fails to
    address the issue or question at hand.
    EXAMPLES
    Chrissy missed the point of Gwen’s complaint, thinking that she was
    opposed to the date of the next meeting
    CONTROL
     Enhance critical thinking- Encourage critical thinking that’s including
    analyzing the argument, recognize logical fallacies and evaluate evidence.
     Avoidance- When collecting data, you can implement procedures to
    minimize missing data.
