If someone refers to an authority (e.g., an expert) to support their claim, what does that remind you of?

Select an answer:

I rely on authorities in everyday decisions. I have doubts because authority may have its own interest. It reminds me of something that often happens in politics, where "expert opinions" are cited. I mostly believe it if it comes from an expert in the field. Similar arguments often seem to me like excuses that are not supported by facts.

What do you think about the argument that says "everyone is doing it, so it must be right"?

Select an answer:

It is a common practice that indicates social pressure has great power. It always seems to me that this logic is inaccurate because not everything that the majority does is correct. This type of argument does not seem convincing to me, as it does not take individual circumstances into account. It is an argument that often leads me to question the morality of the given activity. I often avoid it because I consider it a superficial way to defend something.

If someone claims that "because something never happened, it must be impossible," what is your first impression?

Select an answer:

This argument reminds me of pessimism, which ignores possible changes in the future. I think it is a very simplified view of the matter that does not take into account the variability of situations. Most of the time it sounds like an incomplete analysis of the problem. Why couldn't it happen? I have the impression that this argument does not take into account technological progress or other factors. It reminds me of the types of arguments that people use to defend their assumptions that have never been verified.

If someone argues that "it's not logical because it's not common," what feelings does that evoke in you?

Select an answer:

Such a statement seems to me to be just a convenient generalization that avoids deeper analysis. Perhaps this is true in some cases, but I believe that not everything that is new has to be illogical. This type of argument is often used by people who are afraid of change, and it limits my thinking. This approach does not seem flexible to me because it ignores the fact that logic can change with new evidence. I feel that this way of arguing is not sufficiently open to new possibilities.

If someone decides that something is true because it was a long time ago in the past, what significance does that have for you?

Select an answer:

This argument seems to me like a nostalgic defense of something that may no longer hold true. When something is based on the past, it can be outdated, but it can also be very relevant. Such an approach leads me to questions about how things have evolved, and whether the past is truly a reliable measure. This type of argument reminds me of dogmatism, which does not want to see other perspectives. It is a somewhat closed-minded view of the situation that misjudges the current circumstances.

When someone claims, "that's not true because it has never happened in my experience," what do you think about that?

Select an answer:

This reminds me of a very subjective approach that does not take the broader picture into account. This argument reminds me of personal narrow-mindedness that ignores other experiences and perspectives. It is a closed perspective that does not take into account other options and experiences. This argument seems to me like a defense of one's own opinion without an objective analysis. It often seems to me like an argument that comes from a comfort zone and avoids more complex issues.

If someone says, "if it were true, everyone would know it," what do you think about it?

Select an answer:

This argument reminds me of a popular myth that is based on the idea that everything must be known at once. It sounds like a logical error because not all information is public or accessible to everyone. This type of argument seems to me to be based on a superficial understanding of information and its dissemination. Just because it is not known to everyone, does not mean that it is not true, only that it is not widespread. It reminds me of the tendency to ignore less well-known but important information.

How do you feel when someone says, "that's true because it's always been done that way"?

Select an answer:

That seems to me like too simple an explanation that does not take into account new possibilities. This type of thinking limits me in considering other approaches that may be more effective. This argument sometimes seems to me like a safe way to avoid change or innovation. When someone uses this argument, I feel that the full potential for improvement is not being utilized. This approach reminds me of repeating patterns that may not always work in new conditions.

If someone says: "it can't be true because it's too fantastic to be real," what do you think about that?

Select an answer:

This type of argument often reminds me of a skeptical viewpoint that hinders innovation. It seems to me like an automatic rejection of something new without proper analysis. This argument seems to me like a defense against something unknown, which is hard to accept. It is a closed attitude that does not take into account options that are unexpected but possible. This type of argument reminds me of the fear of the unknown that hinders progress.

When someone uses emotional claims as evidence, what does it evoke in you?

Select an answer:

I tend to be cautious because emotions often do not take into account logic or facts. This type of argumentation rather concerns me because emotions can obscure objective truth. I often feel that this approach is trying to manipulate my feelings rather than provide rational evidence. When emotions are the main argument, I feel that broader evidence or facts are not being considered. This approach leads me to doubt the credibility of the argument when it is not supported by facts.
