BLA1172

In each section you will write the example and details to the law that was broken.
Psychology is a "fuzzy" science, but it's still a science. [] In this article in the L.A. Times there is a doctor who talks about how Psychology is not a Science. He states that it is a way to understand science but it is not a science by itself. To me he is breaking this law and he is wrong.

You are entitled to your own opinion, but not your own facts.

Science runs on careful criticism.

Fight fire with fire, and data with data.

There's power in precise terms.

Correlation is not causation. [] Reading this article the girls volleyball coach at VCU says he was fired for being gay. The reason why I chose this law was because he said that the Administration had also dismissed other staff members for being gay as well. Just because other people have been fired for being gay doesnt mean that he was fired because of that same reason.

More of something good isn't always better. [] In this rule break the author is talking about how Tom Brady needs to throw the ball more and the more he throws the more they will win. I know that the more you throw the ball the more you have a chance to get it intercepted and end up losing the game. So the author is breaking this law by saying that they need to throw the ball more to win.

Beware the plausible, especially if it works.



Where there's smoke, there's smoke. [] In this article it is talking about how smoking can cause to brain problems. Now yes smoking causes alot of things so it is easy to say that smoke can cause harm to the brain just like weed. The only problem I have is that they are only testing people over the age of 50. I think that the older you get the more your brain will decline in success that it had earlier in life. So I just think these people should look at overall health not just people over 50.

Lack of evidence doesn't mean it's false.
