Eng10 False confessions in Japan

https://californiainnocenceproject.org/2013/01/japan-concerned-over-false-confessions/

Eng10 How to Lie to People

Logical fallacies.

Good ways to trick people in an argument, as used by Squealer:

The Appeal to Authority is a fallacy with the following form:

Person A is (claimed to be) an authority on subject S.

Person A makes claim C about subject S.

Therefore, C is true.

The Appeal to Fear is a fallacy with the following pattern:

Y is presented (a claim that is intended to produce fear).

Therefore claim X is true (a claim that is generally, but need not be, related to Y in some manner).

The Relativist Fallacy is committed when a person rejects a claim by asserting that the claim might be true for others but is not for him/her.  This sort of "reasoning" has the following form:

Claim X is presented.

Person A asserts that X may be true for others but is not true for him/her.

Therefore A is justified in rejecting X.

The Appeal to Emotion is a fallacy with the following structure:

Favorable emotions are associated with X.

Therefore, X is true.

This fallacy is committed when someone manipulates peoples' emotions in order to get them to accept a claim as being true. More formally, this sort of "reasoning" involves the substitution of various means of producing strong emotions in place of evidence for a claim. If the favorable emotions associated with X influence the person to accept X as true because they "feel good about X," then he has fallen prey to the fallacy.
