严重推荐：Argument之七宗罪
第一宗罪：无因果联系 after this, therefore because of this
The author commits a fallacy of causal oversimplification. The
line of the reasoning is that because A occurred before B, the
former event is responsible for the latter. (The author uses the
positive correlation between A and B to establish causality.
However, the fact that A coincides with B does not necessarily
prove that A caused B.) But this is fallacious reasoning unless
other possible causal explanations have been considered and ruled
out. For example, perhaps C is the cause of these events or
perhaps B is caused by D.
第二宗罪 Insufficient-sample
The evidence the author provides is insufficient to support the
conclusion drawn from it. One example is logically unsounded to
establish a general conclusion (The statistics from only a few
recent years are not necessarily a good indicator of future
trends), unless it can be shown that A1 is representative of all
A. It is possible that.... In fact, in face of such limited
evidence, the conclusion that B is completely unwarranted.
第三宗罪: 错误类比 (based on a false analogy )<横向>
The argument rests on the assumption that A is analogous to B in
all respects. This assumption is weak, since although there are
points of comparison between A and B, there is much dissimilarity
as well. For example, A..., however, B.... Thus, it is likely much
more difficult for B to do....
第四宗罪 all things are equal<纵向>
The author commits the fallacy of “all things are equal”. The fact
that happened two years ago is not a sound evidence to draw a
conclusion that.... The author assumes without justification that
the background conditions have remained the same at different
times or at different locations. However, it is not clear in this
argument whether the current conditions at AA are the same as they
used to be two years ago. Thus it is impossible to conclude
that....
第五宗罪 Either-Or choice
The author assumes that AA and BB are mutually exclusive
alternatives and there is no room for a middle ground. However,
the author provides no reason for imposing an either-or choice.
Common sense tells us that adjusting both AA and BB might produce
better results.
第六宗罪 survey is doubtful
The poll cited by the author is too vague to be informative. The
claim does not indicate who conducted the poll, who responded, or
when, where and how the poll was conducted. (Lacking information
about the number of people surveyed and the number of respondents,
it is impossible to access the validity of the results. For
example, if 200 persons were surveyed but only 2 responded, the
conclusion that...would be highly suspect. Because the argument
offers no evidence that would rule out this kind of
interpretations,) Until these questions are answered, the results
of the survey are worthless as evidence for the conclusion.
第七宗罪 gratuitous assumption
The author falsely depends on gratuitous assumption that....
However, no evidence is stated in the argument to support this
assumption. In fact, this is not necessarily the case. For
example, it is more likely that.... Therefore, this argument is
unwarranted without ruling out such possibility.
六分模版：
The author in this argument is trying to establish that Apogee
Company should close down its field offices and conduct all its
operations from a single location. This conclusion is based on the
assertion that Apogee Company’s more profit in the past years was
simply caused by operating in one location. To support this
conclusion, the author reasons that such centralization would
improve profitability by cutting costs. In addition, he assumes
that centralization would help the company maintain better
supervision of all employees. Closely examining the author’s logic
and reasoning, we find that neither of these reasons provides
sufficient support for the conclusion and this argument suffers
two serious logical flaws.
First of all, this argument relies on a groundless assumption that
the reason why Apogee Company is less profitable than before is
because it was operated in multiple locations.
However, no evidence stated in the report supports this crucial
assumption. There are many other factors that could have caused or
contributed to the result that the Apogee Company is less
profitable. It is possible that the competitors of Apogee Company
are stronger than past; it is also possible that the slowdown of
the overall economical environment have caused the less
profitability on today than past. Any of these scenarios, if true,
would show that Apogee Company’s poor financial performance is not
due to the multi- location operation. Therefore, without ruling
out other factors or presenting stronger evidence, the author
cannot conclusively assert that Apogee should close down its field
offices and conduct all its operations from a single location.
Second, the author commits the “after this and therefore because
of this” fallacy where the author assumes that because the poor
financial performance occurred after the Apogee Company conducted
its operation from more than one location, the multi-location
operation was responsible for the poor financial performance. The
statistical relationship between the poor financial performance
and multi-location operation can not necessarily establish the
causality between Apogee Company’s poor financial performance and
its multi location operation. In fact, the author obviously
ignored the possibility of other alternative factors such as the
price increase of raw materials, or the extra expense for the
construction of new factory, which may contribute to the Apogee
Company’s poor financial performance. It may be only a coincidence
that the poor financial performance happened after Apogee Company
moved from one location operation to multi-location operation.
Unless the author can rule out other factors relevant to the
relation between poor financial performance and multi- location
operation, this assumption is in question and can not be accepted.
In conclusion, this argument is ineffective because the author
commits the above mentioned logical mistakes. The author could
strengthen the conclusion that Apogee Company should close its
field offices and conducts all its operation in single location by
demonstrating that the poor financial performance was a result of
multi-location operation.
