In this episode of The Gestalt Get Together, Corinne Zmoos continues the discussion on logical fallacies in clinical decision-making for Gestalt language processors (GLPs). She examines how flawed reasoning, cognitive biases, and misleading arguments shape the way GLP is discussed in social media and professional spaces. Corinne highlights the appeal to: nature fallacy, Texas sharpshooter fallacy, burden of proof fallacy, fallacy fallacy, and historian’s fallacy, breaking down how each one influences the perception and application of GLP-based interventions.
The episode also explores how social media amplifies logical fallacies, leading to polarized debates and misinformation. Corinne provides strategies for clinicians to critically assess claims about GLP, including key questions to ask when encountering bold assertions or emotionally charged arguments. She emphasizes that logical fallacies do not necessarily mean a claim is false but rather indicate a need for stronger evidence. By developing critical thinking skills, clinicians can make more informed, evidence-based decisions to best support their clients.
