False Dilemma, Slippery Slope, and Appeal to Authority

4 Abschnitte1 Karteikarten-Decks1 Quizze

A study of three fallacies that distort the range or consequences of available options in an argument -- false dilemma, slippery slope, and appeal to authority. Learners will practice identifying artificially narrowed choices, unsupported chains of predicted consequences, and misuse of expert testimony, and will build habits for restoring a fuller, more accurate picture of the decision space in professional contexts.
