@ChloeCarmichael I think the study guide early on mentions the practice of "translating" when you don't understand a word or concept.
In this case though it seems more helpful to know the form of the correct answer choice, so that you can eliminate A as soon as you see it.
I got it right and then wrong in blind review!! i gotta stop second guessing!!
Weakening an argument means to attack the support, not the premise or conclusion. Typically, the right answer will weaken the support.
AND
strengthening the argument will strengthen the support.
I could imagine myself getting tripped up!
I was doing soooo well until this question :(. got it on blind review though! just have to read more carefully
somehow i completely missed the "most"! I think I rush through these but I need to remember to go slowwww for now
I don't get why he uses the word "true hypothesis" when I thought he said we can't get a true hypothesis with a causal argument?
So just to recap, a causation relationship is never going to be a "true or false" kind of question, only a "most strongly supported by which explanation" kind of question?
And the target phenomenon is the "effect", and the hypothesis/potential explanation is the "cause".
I'm worried about my timing! Even on easy questions, I often go over the recommended timing. I hope they give timing tips and practice later in the study plan?
