AICE Thinking Skills || with 100% Errorless Answers.
Credibility correct answers Includes the reliability of a source, the plausibility of the content of
the evidence, and corroboration or consistency with other evidence
Reliability correct answers Consists of qualities which make them more or less worthy of trust
(RAVEN)
Reputation correct answers The generally held opinion about how reliable it is
Ability to See correct answers Consists of its access to the evidence about which it is making
claims
Vested Interest correct answers Refers to motives arising from potential personal benefit which
might make the evidence more of less reliable
Expertise correct answers Of a source is its specialist knowledge or skills related to the subject
Neutral correct answers Absence of bias in a source
Bias correct answers A motive or tendency to give greater weight or prominence to one point of
view rather than another
Plausibility correct answers A claim is likely to be true based on the content of the claim in the
light of existing knowledge, irrespective of the reliability of its source
Corroboration correct answers Additional evidence from an independent source which supports a
claim (Consistent-it is possible for both pieces of evidence to be true, Inconsistent-it is not
possible for them to both be true)
Number correct answers Samples are by definition smaller than the whole group about which the
claim is being made, but some samples are too small to be the basis of a valid conclusion. So, a
sample can be criticized for its size only if it is unreasonably small (Grogono p. 200)
Selectivity correct answers The method of selection of a sample may influence results in various
ways. People often select data which support the claim they are making. This practice is
sometimes referred to as 'cherry picking', because it is like eating the cherries from a fruit cake
and leaving the rest of the cake (Grogono, p. 200)
Explanation correct answers When people explain evidence, they make suggestions of what
happened before the evidence, it order to bring it about (Grogono, p. 207)
Confounding Variables correct answers A factor which was not the one being studied by may
have influenced the results of an experiment
