necessarily based on fact or knowledge.
FALLACIES –defect in an argument other than it having false premises.

• APPEAL TO PITY (ARGUMENTUM AD MISERICORDIAM) – kind of appeal to emotion


in which someone tries to win support for an argument or idea by exploiting his or
her opponent’s feelings of pity or guilt.
• APPEAL TO IGNORANCE (ARGUMENTUM AD IGNORANTIAM) – whatever has not
been proved false must be true, and vice versa.
• EQUIVOCATION – This is a logical chain of reasoning of a term or a word several
times, but giving the particular word a different meaning each time.
• COMPOSITION – This infers that something is true of the whole from the fact that it
is true of some part of the whole.
• DIVISION – logically that something true of a thing must also be true of all or some
of its parts.
• AGAINST THE PERSON (ARGUMENTUM AD HOMINEM) – fallacy attempts to link the
validity of a premise to a characteristic or belief of the person advocating the
premise.
• APPEAL TO FORCE (ARGUMENTUM AD BACULUM) – an argument that
appeals or exploits people’s vanities, desire for esteem, and anchoring on
popularity.
• FALSE CAUSE – coincidental correlation, or correlation not causation.
• HASTY GENERALIZATION – commits errors if one reaches an inductive
generalization based on insufficient evidences.
• BEGGING THE QUESTION (PETITIO PRINCIPII) – proposition to be proven
is assumed implicitly or explicitly in premise.
