4.1 Vested Interest

We have strong reasons to question the creditability and neutrality of the survey in which the conductor has vested interest and therefore is inclined to manipulate the figures/truth to his own advantage.

We have strong reasons to question the creditability and neutrality of the remarks made by XXX, who has vested interest and therefore is inclined to take the position to his own advantage.

4.2 Specious Statistics

The statistics are intended to support the main claim that…But these statistics are vague and oversimplified, thus may distort the state’s overall economic picture. For example,… Moreover,… Finally,…

1.
State workers’ pay raises may have been minuscule and may not have kept up with cost of living or with pay for state workers in other states. Wage+

2.
The 5000 new jobs may have been too few to bring state unemployment rates down significantly; at the same time, many jobs may have been lost. New jobs+

3.
The poll indicates that six new corporations located in the state, but fails to indicate if any left. New corporations+ (此处用北美范文举例，3个非常典型的例子)

4.3 Statistical Evidence

The survey methodology might be problematic in two respects.

Insufficient sample

…is insufficient to gauge …Lacking information about…, it is impossible to draw any reliable conclusion about…

Respondent

l
根据回复答卷的人分析

Another problem with the argument is that the respondents’ views are not necessarily representative of the views of…in general. For example, because the survey has to do with…, it makes sense that only…would respond to it, thereby distorting the overall picture of..Without knowing how the survey was conducted, it is impossible to assess the validity of the survey.

Another problem with the argument is that we are not informed whether the responses were anonymous, or even confidential. If they were not, the respondents might have provided responses that they believed …would approve of, regardless of whether the responses were truthful.

l
只有结果的百分比，没有受访人数

Another problem with the argument involves the validity of the survey. The author provides no evidence that the number of respondents is statistically significant or that the respondents were representative of …in general. Lacking information about the randomness and size of the survey’s sample, it is impossible to assess the validity of the results.

Information too vague

The information provided in this program is too vague to be informative. Lacking information about who conducted this survey, who responded, or when, where and how the survey was conducted, it is impossible to assess the validity of the results. For example, if 200 persons are surveyed but only 2 responded, the conclusion that … would be highly suspect. Until these questions are answered, the results from this survey are worthless as evidence for the conclusion.

5.1 Cost-and-benefit Analysis

First, the author assumes that… This assumption fails to take into account cost increases and inefficiency that could result from…. For instance, company representatives would have to travel to do business in areas formerly served by a field office, creating travel costs and loss of critical time. In short, this assumption must be supported with a thorough cost-benefit analysis of centralization versus other possible cost-cutting and/or profit-enhancing strategies.
