Description

Everyone has been hearing that correlation is not causation. But this is not necessarily a true statement. Book 1 - Freakonomics: https://tapthe.link/FreakonomicsFIQd Book 2 - Fooled by Randomness: https://tapthe.link/FooledbyRandomFIQd The reality is more nuanced than this plane statement. And I have some real-life examples for you to understand the distinction between the two. Learn if there is a correlation between the terms correlation and causation from the phrase correlation is not causation and how this phrase can fool you into believing things that are not true. Once you understand this difference, you will be well-equipped to avoid common fallacies surrounding that. Learn it all in this futureIQ episode.
