"6547","A characterization of the one-sidedness fallacy within the framework of the cognitive distortions","In this paper, I propose an accurate description of the cognitive process involved in the one-sidedness fallacy, a widespread type of fallacy. I describe first several characterizations of the one-sidedness fallacy, that are either inductive or deductive, or occurring at a meta-philosophical level. I recall, second, the framework of the cognitive distortions described in Franceschi (2007). I give then a definition of the one-sidedness fallacy, by describing it as a general cognitive distortion: the disqualification of one pole. I show finally how the one-sidedness fallacy distinguishes itself from the confirmation bias.","http://cogprints.org/6547/","Franceschi, Dr Paul","UNSPECIFIED","       <span class=\"person_name\">Franceschi, Dr Paul</span>     (2009)  <a href=\"http://cogprints.org/6547/\"><em>A characterization of the one-sidedness fallacy within the framework of the cognitive distortions.</em></a>       [Preprint]           ","p;franceschi@univ-corse.fr","2009-06-13"
