More Information
Confirmation bias involves favoring information that confirms one's beliefs. Causal reasoning identifies cause-effect relationships, and analogical reasoning finds similarities between different entities. A fallacy example is 'appeal to ignorance,' where a claim is true because it hasn't been proven false.
Tips
One common mistake is to misidentify examples of logical fallacies without clear justification.
