| Fallacy | Magnification/Minimization |
|---|---|
| Definition and Examples | When you evaluate yourself, another person, or a situation, you unreasonably magnify the negative and/or minimize the positive (eg My voice sounds so monotone, not resonant, and I'm so dull. I feel that people are just patronizing me when they agree to hang out."). "The fact that I can compress many things quickly doesn't count bc all these other people can." |
