About Cause and Effect
Cause and effect questions examine whether one event produces another, whether both arise from a common factor, or whether their connection is only coincidental. They involve identifying preceding and resulting events, separating correlation from causation, and judging whether the stated evidence supports a direct, possible or unlikely relationship.
