Question

An oversimplification differs from a sound generalization because it:

O
A. leads to conclusions that do not reflect all the sources.
O
B. reflects a historian's biases and personal point of view.
C. acts as a counterclaim against weaker conclusions.
O
O
D. is based on secondary sources rather than primary sources.

Answer 1

The correct answer is letter A.

Explanation: Oversimplification is a fallacy that consists in overvaluing a cause that is part of a system, it is the identification of only part of the causes of an event.

Generalization is having a conclusion based on a small sample of the thing.
