 LEARNING OBJECTIVES:
Recognize faulty logic,
unsupported facts, and emotional
appeal in statements and
advertisements.
Have you ever found yourself
arguing with a friend over
something you knew to be true
but you just couldn‘t find a way
to convince him to believe you?
How are you going to sell
someone a product you know
nothing about?
What are you going to do to
convince someone of what you
are talking about?
is a kind of persuasive
technique having fault or
imperfect reasoning or sound
FAULTY LOGIC
judgment.
LOGIC is the use and study of valid
reasoning while a faulty logic describes
poor reasoning, such as the use of
fallacious arguments like personal (ad
hominem) attacks, irrelevancies,
analogies. Writers and speakers should
avoid logical fallacies because they are
errors in reasoning, they often lead to
false conclusions.
Example, “I loved that movie we saw
last night with Brad Pitt. I am going to
rent all of his movies, and I am sure I’ll
like all of them.” (It is an imperfect
judgment (or faulty logic!) to assume
that you will love all Brad Pitt movies
just because you loved one.
is not upheld by evidence or
facts; unsubstantiated
(unconfirmed).
UNSUPPORTED FACTS
FACTS are those things that have
occurred. However, unsupported facts
are those facts claimed by an individual
or a group of individuals that have
occurred but were unable to provide
enough evidence to support their claim.
Example, “People who live in
the North of Britain are
friendlier than those who live
in the South.”
 is a method of persuasion
appealing to both the brain and
the heart.
EMOTIONAL APPEAL
An emotional appeal is a method of
persuasion that's designed to create an
emotional response. Emotional appeals
persuade audiences by arousing the
emotions. They refer to the speaker or
writer’s goal of arousing the emotions of
an audience to move them to act.
Example, A college student asks his
professor to accept a late paper:
"I've worked all weekend on this
report. I know that it is past your
deadline, but I have to work full-
time while also attending college."
Let us test your critical thinking skill in
determining the worth of ideas. Listen
to the following statements. Identify
the statements which have faulty
logic, unsupported facts, or emotional
appeal.
1. I argued with Mrs. Bam before I
turned in my homework so I got a
bad grade on my paper.

2. A teenager argues against the

family's vacation plans and mother
responds by saying, "When you pay the
bills, you can make the decisions."
3. After making it clear that he values
employee "loyalty" a supervisor asks for
"volunteers" to help a fellow supervisor
move on the weekend.

4. Exercising makes you feel good.

5. I know why you failed all your

classes last semester. You study.
Give some instances in
your daily life wherein
unsupported facts, faulty
logic, and emotional
appeal are present and
can be observed.
 In 3-5 sentences,
differentiate
unsupported facts,
faulty logic and
emotional appeal.
 

1. It uses the manipulation of the emotions rather than valid logic to

win an argument. This logical fallacy is called __________________.

2. If you are agreeing with someone, it means you have

____________________ views on the topic you’re discussing.
a. correct
b. different
c. the same
d. no

3. These are the facts claimed by an individual or a group of

individuals that have occurred but were unable to provide enough
evidence to support their claim.
4. It is a kind of persuasive technique
having fault or imperfect reasoning or
sound judgment.

5. It is the use and study of valid reasoning

while a faulty logic describes poor
reasoning, such as the use of fallacious
arguments like personal (ad hominem)
attacks, irrelevancies, analogies.
